I Can’t

I appreciate this moment
and this situation,
then you say,
“Darling, let’s get married.”
And I know you think you mean it,
but I can’t.
Because most guys
just want to change me
and constrain me,
once they’re drawn to the
freedom and the wildness I possess.
I’m not sure if you’re
another one just yet…
