Oh Baby//All I Want

Old Poems

By Chick OrlandoPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

You've earned your wings and baby it shows

Who gave them to you?

I gave them to you?

That's what you say

Swinging out of fog like a freight train with no breaks

Like the discordant slam of a piano

The clatter of a drum kit in a dull, white, space

Do I mean this much to you?

//

All I want is for my absence to be disappointing instead of welcomed

All I want is to feel grateful for my life, instead of burdened

All I want is to love you without hesitation

To miss you in my dark moments instead of fear the idea of you

All I want is everything, even for a moment
