you can be the king and i'll try to be the queen.

      and
    love
without
    suffering
i am afraid of fucking up,
of making a mistake
(though i did;
i told my mom the truth of
who you are and
what monsters we were.)

i said that i regretted e-v-e-r-y time i said i hated you;
that i could never pay for my imperfections;
but all i can perform are faux pas,
and nothing can be the same.

you are a plethora of radiance and sadness
that i truly adore-

      i just wish i could understand why i'm feeling so
                    d

I like the wide breadth of language you use, with regal and nobler descriptions, then 'monsters' as that symbolism that belongs to regal and nobler language, but then jumping to a precision F-strike in the center. I have a great appreciation for your arrangement in composition, both visually distinct and in the words themselves.
