Do Not Be Bossy In Love Poem by Atef Ayadi

Do not take the boss
Position in love;
Who must submit,
Who must move first,
Who is the good player
Who is the hero, and
Who is the looser;
Because, in love
There is
No master and slave
No god and worshiper.
I already made you already a god,
A pilgrimage, and
A temple.
So, why you want to be bossy and
Show me
You are in control.

Do not!

Leave bossing for the tired and the sad.

Because, in love
There is no
Who must move first,
Who must kiss first,
Who must kill first,
There is
No leader,
No chauffeur,
No real map,
No plan, and
No exits.

Do not get bossy
And show me your ''how to be''
But show me your deepest strength
And weakness in love.

Do not get bossy
Because, in love
A character is
A color,
A form,
A different music note,
A peace of literature,
A fearful jungle,
A Niagara fall,
A lost rainbow, and
An extraordinary Persona, and
I want you to be
Xenoglossy
Like Eileen.
