Never Care To Know Poem by Shilesha Johnson

We wouldn't just match
We'd fit together perfectly
There isn't a doubt in my mind
or an ounce of uncertainty
But your actions stop my heart in it's tracks
They have me slowing down my pace
Before you get double lapped
Early enough to catch my breath
and think more rational
Before one of us gets left
Before I end up 30 pages ahead
cause then you'd be skipping steps
Missing out on all the words I ever said
and all the pain I ever felt
thus not fully comprehending
turning out like everyone else
You and I could be
We could be powerful and have something great to treasure
Switch the whole alphabet up permanently
and put U and I together
We would go
and though you confess your so called love for me
It never shows
and the way I TRULY feel about you..
You would never care to know
