Asexual Poem

Don’t Tell Me About Your Body, Tell Me About …

 

Don’t tell me about your body, tell me about your mind,

Tell me about YOU being kind.

Share with me your thoughts, of your goals, ambitions and dreams,

Tell me your wants, your needs, and what makes you want to scream!

 

Don’t tell me about your body, tell me about your heart’s desires.

Reveal to me ALL your inner sides.

Share with me your day and what’s on your mind,

Allow your love to flow over me, of the non-sexual kind.

 

Don’t tell me about your body, tell me what makes you come alive,

Tell me what makes YOU thrive.

Share with me your whole life, regardless of if I am not your wife,

Say you will be mine forever, monogamous life partners together.

 

Don’t tell me about your body, tell me about your love,

Tell me how you will always be to me good.

Share with me your strengths and your vulnerabilities,

Your hopes and your insecurities.

 

Don’t tell me about your body, tell me about your personality,

Tell me you are proud and appreciative of being with me.

Share with me your life, your love, your soul,

Share with me your life, in whole.

 

Don’t tell me about your body, tell me about how I make you feel,

Tell me your deepest fears and your secrets reveal.

Share with me every part of you,

Let me be part of everything you do.

 

Don’t tell me about your body, tell me about YOU,

Tell me how much you love me and show me in everything you DO.

Share with me your ups, share with me your downs,

But promise me one thing, this is true love you found.
