to my listener

i am the dress i've only worn once before
our arms worn in secret themes
please accept me as i am
ill-masked with potholes
looking for a love with no perception
i will take you as you are
scratched arms
track-marks from wearing the same smile for days
line your face with adore
adorn your lips with kissed days
i'm sitting on the side of one
on behalf of another
please take these letters and make them your own
to the listener of days
to the fighting way i phrase
please understand the sadness
madness
cried out from parked cars
un-marked scars
because my arms have held on
to you for much too long
i'm weary with the weight of you
and loving every minute
i love you as you are
my listener...
