Feelings by Floetry

It’s 4:53 am and the current of time is tugging on my lids. He’s on the phone and I’m hearing him tell me how he feels about me. I’m hearing him and all that matters is -he feels for me. He feels for me. I don’t want to think, confirm, or discuss how I will change or continue to impress… I realize my love will perform for me. I love him enough to just let it be and not interfere. I don’t want to explain or communicate the emotions… I only want to feel. He shares how me changing is imposable and echoes how he wants to fall in love with me, not who I reform to due to his wants. But then he says, “I noticed you have learned to curve what annoys me because you know it gets you closer to what you want.” I woke up. I start to listen and think. My feelings take a seat in a crowd of influential thoughts. And then a moment of silence is thick and he asks (even though the hours has passed with me on mute), “why are you so quiet?” I laugh and say, “I am now listening” He takes this as a good thing and continues. When will I learn? He continues to let me know what great things about me outweigh the bad…The phone loses signal and my phone radio automatically starts to play “Feelings” by Floetry. I get annoyed by the song interrupting my thoughts, but then I hear the music and voices and start to listen to the words. They reflect how I feel now. And I start to want to let love lead me again and not think. I start to understand how a person can get in your way when all you want from them, is to feel. The phone rings, I pick up, and hear his voice say, “Carlita stop thinking”… He feels me. (Smile)
