haiku for hearts
I show my colors
To everyone I meet.
I am sold As-Is.
At this stage in my life there isn’t much use in trying to change my nature
(just my weight.) And pretending to have changed fundamentally is ridiculous.
If, at the end of the day I like me, and I’m not hurting anyone,
then the ‘me’ you see, is the ‘Me’ I am.
It’s both honest and fair; I’m not repackaged as New, or Improved.
Just gluten free.
This way, when you choose to be with me over other men,
you are sure of what you are really getting, and won’t have regrets later.
My finish isn’t tarnished or scratched; it’s pre-antiqued.
Missed Connections are filled with good, bad, and a blue-striped-dog-haiku. Did you write one? Did you find one? Embrace your beautiful as-is self and then email the link to Lovelorn Poets! We’ll preserve those colorfully-weathered-syllables for all eternity.
