Can I Do Your Hair

Can I Do Your Hair

Can I do your hair?
Can I talk to you?
Can I read you a poem from my little brown book of poetry?
Can I tell you my deepest desires?
Can I tell you my dreams?
Can we play tic tac toe and scrabble?
Can we stay up late and talk on the phone?
Can we go to dinner and laugh at silly things we see?
Can we hold hands down town in the park near Chestnut Street?
Can you pray to God with me?
Can we figure out this life together?
Can we plan for increment weather?
Can I dress in tight black leather just for you?
Can we raise our children in truth?
Can you never lie and always tell me the truth?
I'd do it for you.
Can you answer all of my questions when I ask?
Can we frequently take showers together and sometimes baths?
Can we cook in the kitchen something sweet to eat?
Can you be strong for me when I am weak?
Can you promise me fidelity when we marry?
Can you not be jealous and envious of me?
Can you trust me?
Can I trust you?
Can we come together as a family you and me and we?
Can we?
Cause this lack of communication and understanding;
Child like reprimanding;
Handling
Wanting and waiting
Anticipating
Struggling and Striving
Can I do you hair?
