Words Left Unsaid

daughter, ask me what I am what I do I’ll 
tell you daughter or maybe today I’ll say
partner a good one too. florist, sometimes
receptionist somewhere or other and lover
one that demands attention don’t forget me 
now don’t, forget me now. I like chaos in love 
my venus in leo she likes chaos with a touch 
of - tenderness - those things are what I am
I write, day in day out I write and I wonder 
why those words fall off my lips less easily 
than the others why they, choose to be 
hidden in the dark why they, can’t say what 
they are why they, can’t say what I am those 
words left unsaid those dreams left undreamt 
I write I write but ask me about me and I’ll 
tell you all the things I am not.
