On the Nature of Romance

The perfume drives me crazy

Not really as important

as the voice that perks my ears up

but don't smell too much

Clumsy is okay

but not stupid,

maybe stupid if you learn

but I don't want you to change for me

maybe change for you....

an attachment to a phone,

that better not be you

you can talk to me in person--

I like to look at you--

Most of all,

don't ever in your life

text

me that you love, like or enjoyed sex with me--

I hate that.

You can talk to me on the phone about your family,

just don't forget to hang up.

It's okay to call me names,

but mean it, and I mean because its true,

not just calling me on my b.s.

but because something I said hurt you

but don't call me an a-hole

because I'll break up with you.
