Confusing lust and love can ruin you if you let it. In this poem, I try and touch upon the moment I saw the truth between me and a lover. Like most things in life, nature has the perfect simile for this moment.

Waves
I hear my name claw out of your mouth
A soft raw
A silenced growl
And in this moment I am yours.
 
With your guard down,
Your eyes on me.
You're amazed now;
I see your vulnerability.
 
With me full of you
I know that you're scared.
Unsure of what's to come
And who'll be there,
 
But I am not the one you want by your side.
 
Just like waves kissing the shore;
I'm only here for a while.
