Billet-Doux

I want to write

A love letter

One not for you

But instead for me

A self-love letter for the depths of me who deserve it

Oh, how I deserve it

A love letter

Written by someone

Who sees love in my emerald green eyes

Who sees potential in my lips when I spit venom into my prey

Who can read passion in the tears I shed for no particular reason

My lover

My life

You'll never write me a love letter

But you don't have to

Because I'll write mine
