"I Am Not What You Want" - A Poem by Aishwarya Lakkakula

I Am Not What You Want

Seek me not in your heart.

Dig me not deep in your thought.

Darken me not with your dart,

Write to me not with your citrine font.

Touch me not to your nine day part,

Love me not for your desire—

For love is not what you want.
