Door Slamming Dreams
Melatonin just
puts you to sleep, does not keep.
I wake as you leave.
Melatonin just
puts you to sleep, does not keep.
I wake as you leave.
Sleep won’t find me now
If I asked to share your sheets
Would you let me, please?
I promise never to say anything bad about you again. I do hope you defended me occasionally. I don’t ignore the want for your skin, It’s the only thing I want from you anymore. I will never want to meet your parents, but after consecutive months of cringing from normal pain, I only want your waist.
I wanted your smile
Tucked away in my wallet
You left, anyway
Isn’t it a shame
Curves on faces don’t last long
Your face falls again
Taking time to think
Of what we had and let lie
Shooting stars don’t work
Shooting blanks, not threats
I just wanted one more night
Wanted your body
It’s all about me
What I want and what I want
What I want is once
Once more to settle
One more time to silence doubt
One more time to quell
All my lusting thoughts
You can hold and take away
Finally alone.
