You will lose yourself in me. I don't know, but it got me thinking about being lost in someone.. I'm anxious to read other comments.

If you expect me to compare myself
to a Summer's day, or feel shakespear
that love is in the air, than I am not then
the poem for you.
I am the humidity that precedes Malaria,
influenza exploding into airborne Ebola, just my opinion, my least favorite line. It's nastier than the others
rhythm without rhyme,
and the stolen fire of insight.
With me, you will finally understand why
a flower is lonely, and why you lie restless my two favorite lines.. finally something
to blame all those restless nights on
beneath the moon. I will not be
your Russian nesting doll
for I will never lose myself in you,
though you may in me.
You have a very nice way with words.
