Can I Have You
CAN I HAVE YOU?
By Atsu Adaletey
Can I have you?
No
It's not a request
It's a quest
Can I have you?
No
You didn't ask for it
Cos I do desire same too
You don't want to make a move
Cos you think I'm gonna tag you as bad
You didn't want to say it
Cos you think I'm gonna run away from you
Your fingers gently travel on my skin and feel like pinching me
But you can't go the extra mile
Cos you are wondering what I would be thinking of
You want to
But don't have the courage to
You feel it deep inside you
But don't want to fully let it out
You hate me
Cos I seem not to initiate
But you are WRONG
Very wrong
Wrong cos
Same here
I hunger to have your lips
Cos for no reason
That is what I feel like eating
But I have not the courage
Anytime at your sight
I starve
But I have not the courage
To eat
My lips tremble when so close
But I have no courage
To clip them to yours
Can I have you?
It's a question
From my quest
Can I have you?
It's what I often feel
For no reason do I feel
Can I have you?
I often don't ask openly
But silently
And strongly
It's what I needed most
Can I have you?
Is it a question?
Or a quest?
