More Like You Poem by Kewayne Wadley

One of the biggest things that attracts me to you
Is that you do not have it together.
You tell the truth regardless of the circumstance.
When you open your mouth all restraint
Goes out of the window
Despite how much you hate it.
You try so hard to hold it all together.
Nothing ever goes to plan, no matter how well
We as humans attempt.
But the moment is never as lost as it may seem.
It takes absolute courage to admit that no matter how
Strong you are. That you too, are human.
To some it's terrifying that at any given moment
You can lose control the way that you do.
& for you I am sure that it is terrifying as well
As that has restricted you from saying as much
As you'd like to, but not because of fear.
I love how confident you are in yourself.
& how strong you've become.
In fact when I look at you.
I don't see a reason to be terrified or anyone
That can be deemed as difficult.
In fact, it motivates me to be more like you
Every time I look into your eyes
& makes me proud to be able to say
That I am glad you're in my life
