Talk to Me (poem)

Talk to me with happiness

Like you couldn’t wait to see me after a long day.

Talk to me with intent

Be direct and mean the words you say.

Talk to me with passion

Let me hear what lights you up.

Talk to me with commitment

Reassure me that it’s only us.

Talk to me with excitement

Like I make your world a tad more bright.

Talk to me with hunger

Like only I can ease your appetite.

Talk to me with ease

Like no conversation between us is ever too hard.

Talk to me with tenderness

Like you hold me in the highest regard.

Talk to me with empathy

Because you feel me enough to understand.

Talk to me with strength

Like I can trust you to never let go of my hand.

Talk to me with peace

Like disagreements don’t lead to war.

Talk to me with consistency

Keep using the same tone as before.

Talk to me with simplicity

Be clear, concise and direct.

Talk to me with equality

Like you got some sense and some respect.

Talk to me with longing

Like you can’t get me off your mind.

Talk to me with safety

Like within your arms everything will be fine.

Talk to me with stability.

I love your ambition and your drive.

Talk to me with love

Like I’m the most important person alive.
