"Behind Closed Doors"

A Poem by what-the-frick

"Behind Closed Doors"
I love you.
Wait, you expect me to show it?
Girl, don't you blow it.
Let's just see how things play.
It's not like you're going away.

I love you.
Let's make a baby.
You wanna be my girl?
I don't know, maybe.
Let's not move too fast.
You know how I love to finish last.

I love you.
Happy Birthday.
Oh, wait, no. My bad.
I almost didn't think about ME.
And I'm too sick to think of you.
And even IF my text came through,
I have to update my status, too.

I love you.
Let's get a place.
Don't worry, I'll save face.
I make more money.
But. Wait.
It was just here.
Oh well, I'll get some beer.
And some wine.
How else can I pass the time?

I love you.
Let's get married.
You want a proposal? AND a ring?
You're not worth those things.
Damn, girl, you expect a lot.
I haven't given it THAT much thought.

I love you.
Let's do forever.
Actually, you know, make that...
Never.
This whole emotion thing?
I just don't get it.
Let's just forget it.
I've had my housekeep,
Time to move on.
Can't stay in one place too long.

About
I'm hypersensitive. I feel emotional over things that don't hold substance. You can break my heart with just a look. I don't give up without a fight. My life is a soundtrack. But pay attention, the mu.. more..
