there's no "flaw" in my code,
and i'm NOT asking
for too much
i deserve to be loved
and not to feel like your burden
i deserve to be loved
and to not feel as if i'm
investing my time and energy
into a ghost
i deserve to not have to
shrink myself in order to
fit right with you
i deserve to laugh
as much as i want to without
feeling judged for the way
my body expresses joy
i deserve to be listened to
on the first warning
when i say "no"
to have someone touch
my mind before they
touch my body
to have someone
ask how my day was,
say good morning
and good night
i deserve someone with whom
i feel comfortable enough
to share this poetry with
- i deserve a love deeper than the ocean itself.
