said, "take a step back,
you've got too much to mention."
and thus i felt that,
you have too much demention.
but do you feel that?
that's my fawning existence
coming over your head
like a hearty indulgence.
can you tame that?
or should i stay in a cage?
what would you name me?
and could i come out to play?
or would i stay there,
same spot every day?
i don't think i want to
live my life that way.
but that's what pets do,
and such i'd be for you.
i'd even pet you back
if you'd pet me, too.
we could just lie there,
watch the atmosphere.
the moon looks tiny,
like a marble, from here.
do you like counting stars?
i don't, but okay.
i'd count a million stars
for you every day.
"Being who you are is not just okay,
it's brave; and it deserves respect."
