Loveless

November 12, 2014

Love

Day in and day out

Sexuality questioned because

I don't follow the common guide to attraction

I want to love too

But why should I follow society's rules?

I want to be held

I want to cuddle

But whenever someone gets within arms reach

I shove them and run away

I want love

But how can I get love when I can't stand

To be touched?
