I don't want you.  I dont want you.  I don't want you.  I don't want you.  I don't want you.
You don't really love me.
You ignore me.
You make me wait.
I'm not a dog.
You confuse me.
You marginalize me.
You make me wonder if I should call.
You shut me out.
You lie about letting me in.
You say you love me and then abandon me.
I'm not stupid.
You don't know yourself.
You are a child.
You don't know how to love.
That love is more than a word..
More than a feeling.
It is a behavior.  
You are misbehaving.
You can do that...

Solace in silence.
My mind is a universe
Where the rules
Of the earth
Apply as necessary,
Where I own my
Thoughts,
Where my imagination
Rockets  into
Your space and
Orbits your life-force
To swirl round and round
In a cloud of moondust
And cupid's hints,
If only for a moment.
Is someone talking to me?
Shhh.  Be quiet....

Tip, toe


Tip, toe
Low gear rumble
Creeping towards you
Against all contrary forces.
Wait!
Heel, toe
Heel, toe
Pockets of passion
Pounding me senseless
Beyond my rationality.
Think!
Heel-toe
Heel-toe
Your messages of love
Cut through my caution
Perfectly timed.
Fall!
Freeze.
Stay.
You step away
I don't understand
Passion on a stopwatch.
Time's up!
Toe-heel.
Toe-heel.
Do I sense a whisper
Telling me of feelings
I can't ignore?
No!
Toe, heel.
Turn, run.
You...
