To my lovers

I know how you might feel

here's other man

Battleling to be 

inside me

He want to see me in pain

or all what is there to gain

How can I express all my love 

If English is not my mother tongue

When you can't use all the words you know to express yourself

you end up being so simple it hurts

but what if I'm not?

I will try with English metaphors

if the oceans were paint 

and the sky my canvas...

I will paint everyday

and it wound't be enough

to describe how much I care about you

Maybe I should try a different one

Roses are red

Violets are blue

I swear I will never rape you

Ok ok ok this is too much 

I don't want to force it

but I think I love you. 

Your smile, your pumpkin head 

and how you don't care about me.

Hear me right that I can't say it back

I care about the whether,

agriculture, cycling, 

vegan food

and now there's you.
