Sterile

I am Sterile

and therefore, safe.

Well, safer.

I will not try to fall in love with you.

I will definitely NOT try to have sex with you.

I will, however, try to make a connection.

I will try to have fun with you.

I love connecting and I love fun.

Those two things are the ONLY things I want in any relationship.

Very vague, I know, since anything can constitute as fun.

Anything could make a connection.

But be aware to not misunderstand,

Just because I yearn for connection, it doesn't mean I yearn for love.

Connection is not love.

It can be a counter to loneliness or lonesomeness.

It is not love.

It is a pull to unite oneself with others and be a part of something bigger.

It is a common ground, it may grow into community but that is rare for an

Introvert.

I do feel and deeply.

I care and deeply.

I may feel infatuation or obsession but that is not love and it took me a long time to recognize the difference.

Fun is a whole Other poem...
