Can I Confess

that i like the fried part of
fried chicken more than
i like the chicken?

that i cheat and read the
last page first of every
book i read?

that i dream of winning
a lot of money and never
having to do anything but
die for the rest of my life?

that i dream i will meet
someone whose face
i almost see in my dreams,
whose voice i hear in my
head, who i've known my
entire life without meeting
him once?

can i confess that i'm
a sappy romantic and
sad songs are my favorites
and true crime books by
Ann Rule and Jack Olson
are my secret passion?

can i confess that i don't
even know you, but i love
you already?
