bachelor party

by kell - Virgo

i realize, now, 
i sometimes linger a little longer
when he stops me to talk
and my mind wanders to places
you wouldn't appreciate
while looking into his eyes
and i sometimes, now, 
allow him to 'accidently' 
brush up against me
only so i can feel the chills
of his desire.

all of this 
derived from 
my own understanding
of your inability 
to stand tall
to the opinions or thoughts
of your friends
because with them you aren't
unique or special or even individual
you're just one part
of the whole
and well, you see
the rest of those parts

they just don't love you as i do.

however, i realize now,
i linger a little longer
my eyes become softer
and my mind wanders to places 
i know you wouldn't appreciate...

all of this derived from your
desire to make your friends happy.

and i am expected to trust.

you see...
it's not you i don't trust
it's your weakness

something i now completely understand.
