Things that are Unbelievable

I know that songs can erupt
into moments.

you do not need to dare me

I will do mostly anything
you want
for me to be your naughty girl
good girl
any type you want.

I could transform
into diverse
beings, you would think
I haunted your mind

I can be a mountain
you want to climb.
I have romance
written in my bedroom eyes
do not look at my many faults
or read my books.

I do not want to be a poet with you.
I want to only be a woman.
