FULLY EQUIPPED

I'm sending you
telepathic, repetitious, subtle subliminal messages.
Is it working?
Have I quietly made you believe
I am everything that you need, indeed.
I mean what's not to love about me?
My insecurity, my arrogance, my dramatics.
Wait, rewind that’s not what I meant.
I mean what’s not to love about me?
My confidence, my intellect,
my soft juicy voluptuous lips,
I know you'll go crazy when I kiss your hips,
the way I use my tongue ring
to do those little tricks,
I won't get to specific,
because I already know
deep, deep, deep, inside of me,
I am indeed everything that you need.
And should you come to any other conclusion,
it's definitely due to your own confusion
because when I send you these
telepathic, repetitious,subtle, subliminal, messages
it's for your own good.
Because for a limited time only
I am offering you the amazing offer of
happiness with me.
Fully equipped with love and dedication,
Intellectual conversation,
and physical stimulation.
(Sorry cooking and cleaning is not included)
Offer is for a limited time so act NOW! NOW!
Now hear this my precious
I'm sending you
telepathic, repetitious, subtle, subliminal messages.
Can you hear me?
Do you fear me?
I can't seem to captivate you for long,
a moment or two
and I think I've left an impression on you
Tell me what do I have to do
to leave a permanent imprint upon your soul?
Is this real?
The way that I feel,
or have I created my own private fairy tale
where you are my king.
I desire inspiration
yet, I can never seem to find a destination
and I am exhausted from continually repressing
Myself.
If I sit really pretty with out a sound
and raise my hand,
would you pick me?
I desperately want to stand out front
but I sit quietly,
with my arms at my side
and I let my opportunities pass me by.
Do I fear you?
Is that the real truth?
Have I been sabotaging my own bliss?
because these days
it seems like it's hit or miss.
And, I know how to pull you in,
and I know how to push you out,
pull you in,
push you out,
pull you in,
and push you out...
of my heart.
But for the record,
every time we part
I'm always thinking about you.
So if I say I'm a believer in destiny,
than I have to believe
if we are meant to be,
it will be.
But in the mean time
I'm going to continue sending you,
telepathic, repetitious, subtle, subliminal messages.
Hope you call on your higher consciousness,
that receives E.S.P
and helps you start to believe
that you love me,
love me,
love me,
do you? do you?
do you?
do
you
do,
you do!
You do...love me.
