Coordinate Brain to Heart

A Poem by Gaige
"

"
A knock on my door
I want to let you in
But I can't be quite sure
You'll leave the mud on the mat

I ask to take your coat
But you stand there naked
A cold, wet contradiction
Something akin to a virtuous s**t

Drought fills the room
Parched from the warm and cold
Would you like some tea?
Maybe some oxygen to breathe?

Help me in the kitchen
I need you to make me a memory
You seem like you've figured everything out
I want you to come to my room

The silly secrets we could share
If only you'd stay for supper
But you have to go
You'll miss the last stop for this train

I eat dinner alone
Waiting for a phone call
For you to say you got safely home
Subliminal angst in the lasting silence

Laying my head down to dream of you
Today was the day my heart dropped out
I wonder if it will come around again
Re-enroll in this school of faults

I've learned my lesson so well
No one to blame but reflections and myself
I won't forget to lock my door
Letting you in has been a little slice of hell
I don't think I'll let anyone in anymore
