Poem

I dont want to love u
Cos it wuld imply that
U have not been loved
I don want to improve u
Cos it would imply that u r
Imperfect
I don want be there for u
Cos it would send out
A message that u r lonely
I dont want to spoil u
Coz it would imply that
Unoda zvinhu
I don think it is enough to
Think about u everyday
Cos it would imply that
You are insecure.
I don want to tell you that u r beautiful
Cos it would imply that
You dont know already that you are
I don want to tell u that u
Look perfect tonight
Cos it would imply that in other nights
You look something else
I don want to
Tell you I miss u
Cos it would
Sound like there are days when I dont
I don want to
Be your lover
Coz it would imply that
You cannot love yourself
I dont want to tell you that
U complete me
Cos it would imply that
You are incomplete
I don want to
Tell u of how I saw you in my dreams
Cos it would imply that
You only make sense
In a world of fantasies
I don want to
Tell u that u are precious to me
Cos precious is too little to describe you
I don want to
I don want to tell u that u mean everything to me
That would imply that u are nothing to the world
