Suki Dayo
You’re my best friend,
My worst enemy.
You make me smile when I’m mad
‘Suki Dayo’
Melts the anger away.
It’s scary;
The feeling of being helpless,
Knowing;
If you wanted to,
You could change me beyond recognition.
Yet,
I’m still here, questioning,
You tell me you do,
‘Suki Dayo’
Is it true?
I’ve been hurt,
My mind torn at with jagged claws
He told me,
‘Suki Dayo’
He didn’t mean it
Not the way I wanted him to.
So why am I here now?
Risking my personality,
My scarred mind.
What if…
What if, you mean it the way he did?
Will you leave me unrecognisable?
You tell me you won’t.
‘Suki Dayo’
Is it true?
You hurt me already,
It obviously meant something different to you.
‘Suki Dayo’
‘Only you’
So, have you already added a scar?
Am I good enough for you?
Am I damaged goods?
No good for anyone?
Doomed forever
To be second choice?
You tell me I’m wrong,
‘Suki Dayo’
Is it true?
But…
Through the fears,
The insecurities,
The past that can not be escaped,
You pull me into your arms,
You kiss my hair,
Tell me everything will be ok,
I am all you need,
Beautiful.
Smart.
I don’t agree with you.
But the look in your eyes,
Makes me believe you,
‘Suki Dayo’
‘I love you too’
