Just A Conversation Poem by Maya Hanson

"You complete me, "
a majestic set of words
that shouldn't converge
around me

"You are my universe, "
a slippery hurricane
I wish I'd
never heard

And it's just
a conversation
but it carries a weight
I don't want to hold

It's just words,
but I'd rather leave
your arms around me
than make a promise I can't keep

"Love, "
a simple four letters but
one of the heaviest
things on the planet

And it's just
a conversation
but it carries a weight
I don't want to hold
