poem ~ be you

You might not like the words
I choose today,
And feel that the ones I used
were too colorful yesterday.

My question to you
is what do you want of me?
To be honest and real
or fake about what I feel?

You might not like the vulnerability
you see me display,
For the reasons it makes you
uncomfortable today.

My question to you
is what do you want for you?
To be connected and appreciated
yet fully understood?

You might not like my approach
at boldness and life,
Feeling the cost
is not worth the investment or price.

My question to you
is what have you to loose?
When you give it your all
what’s left to be construed?
