The girl with conversation
ammunition coming from
her sweet meritless tongue.
She freely speaks
with this sexy attitude
where there are no limits
something that obviously
draws and attracts me in.
I’m her blind stranger
retelling a lifetime of memories
I make her laugh
I’m afraid to admit
she has me in her aim.
This is not about love
I’ve already fallen from
my high and righteous place.
I’ve already settled on this
the prettiest one,
the one who refuses
to say those usual words.
Those most basic of terms
that everyone else
so loosely throws away.
I’m tempted
to turn in on myself
and never type another word.
Maybe then
my inner voice
wouldn’t betray me
to the one
I’m hiding from
here on the outside
of this social world.
I could trust and believe
all my fucked up stories
buried here inside.
Accept me to be your fool
not the beautiful one
who everyone instantly loves.
I promise I’ll keep perfect count
keeping an exact and accurate
record of my time here.
I was recently asked
to come join this one,
this other kind of girl,
someone I’ve never thought
of considering before
still, these first times
are meant to be
tried and tested
I accepted the date.
I’m late now because
the beautiful one
wants my words
to be exclusively hers.
Thank you Ms.
