New Poem, "Anti-Star Struck"

Anti-Star Struck

If you weren't who you say you were, then I'd might stare at you

for days until my eyes fell off from my 25-year-old face...

Scary, but very true, I refuse to get star struck the way you do.

Ever since you accused me of envy, I can't bear to see your face again...

I don't think envy, I don't act envy, and I am not envy at all in my life.

You sound and probably are so insecure with you that you brought out

the very worst in me and most likely the very worst in you too.

Perhaps I should have known that it was you that gets my attention,

but then again, I don't care for the celebrity that you show to the world...

Maybe, just maybe, I could have reacted in a much better fashion.

I can't get this anti-star struck feeling out of my system at all,

however, I like it that way, and I refuse to become star struck.

I have grown, I have changed, and therefore, I am a humble being

that would only get star struck after the day I die here on earth.

And my death will not happen anytime soon so don't push your luck.

I'd rather be the humble being that I was born to be here on earth

and not some asshole that only wants to sleep with me or use me

for my body in any way, shape or even form whatsoever, since

I was raised to worship my higher power and to respect my body.

If only I was your one and only then I would have given up my body

to you and only you... to where I would bear your future children.

But now that we are two different beings and apart from each other,

it's best that you and I would be only civil to one another for all time.

I am not who you think I am at all, I know me much better than you...

so when I end this story once and for all, you shall see the light of reality

that struck you far too late in your life... oh wait... I meant far too soon.

Now that I am so very proud to say that I am very anti-star struck,

I can now live my life without regretting anything at all ever again.

And you will pay the price for the falseness you brought to my life.

Maybe not today nor tomorrow, but one day, and soon...

Readers: This work is brand new. I thought of this one in the midst of my quarrel with a certain someone that I was close to. She knows who she is. Hopefully people can treat others with the respect that they deserve and not accuse others of what all know isn't true. Enjoy otherwise!

Poem from poem book, "Superhero Lover"

Superhero Lover

Everything you promised me then, I want...

I yearn for you, my superhero kind of lover.

In case you didn't know by now, I'm all yours,

yours to save, yours to love, and yours to protect.

I don't ask for much nor am I a damsel in distress,

but you always save me from the losers and assholes

that only want my body and not the whole me.

I could have fallen for you then, but I

refuse to fall for anything and everything...

as I stand for something and someone that is special.

You never assumed my judgement as an evil wrong,

and you waited and waited for me to go to your arms,

and because of your patience, I'm eternally yours.

A star falls, and I wished for my version of

a superhero for a lover, yet my answer wasn't

immediately answered, but that answer came at the best

of timings in my life, when I was supposed to die

for a crime that I know I didn't commit at all.

Because of your love, I've changed completely

to become a much better person in my own life.

Now that our stars in the night sky are aligned,

You will always be "The One" for my heart,

and as we sit here in this bed together...

you simply are my superhero kind of lover.

This poem is for my Uncle Allen and his better half Karolyn.

Enjoy!
