Just a little smile
Just a little comment
Just a little touch
Just a little gesture.
I’m swollen
I’m unpretty
I’m slow
I’m weak.
I wish I were slim
I wish I were sweet
I wish I were quick
I wish I were strong.
Not so.
Of all faces, yours.
But you turn away.
Or you turn to scorn.
I just need you. badly. lastly. willingly. lovingly.
