but they’d like you
i may be a piece of shit
but i pick good friends
you could safely say
my only redeeming quality
is getting people
who are way too good for me
to love me
(i hope it works on you)
allie would take one look at you
and immediately know everything
about you
that draws me in
she would see your sweetness
and your humor, your easiness.
“tender” is a word
she would use to describe
how my face softens
when i admire you
(secretly, in fleeting glances and peripheral vision)
dan, upon first meeting you,
would be giddy with joy.
they know everything already
every thought i’ve ever had
about your graceful body
and soft curls
has already been relayed to them
they know how very happy
you are capable of making me
they would lock gaze with you
soulful brown eyes
longing to explain
how easy it is to hurt me
(but you wouldn’t do that, i don’t think. i trust you won’t, anyway.)
one day
when things are
not so unsettled
i’ll introduce you
to each of my friends
(perhaps, as my girlfriend. i’d like that.)
until then
i will tell you about them
and then about you
and when you finally do m e e t
we’ll see how well
i executed my task
of telling my greatest loves
of my newest love
