Don't Tell Me
Don’t tell me I am beautiful.
Don’t tell me I am strong.
Just tell me you will comfort me
in my uncomfort zone
when I am weak and tired
and energy is gone;
when make-up’s not required;
or neither silicon;
when high heels are not needed
and polished manicure,
and sleepers are the only ones
that soothe me on the tours
between the kitchen cabinets,
the fridge, the stove, the mail…
Just tell me you will comfort me
In those unpleasant days.
…Then we can walk together
connected hand-in hand.
