I'm Not In The Dictionary

You could say, it really doesn't matter what I think...

My half ass logic has gotten thinner these days and I'm getting

exhausted thinking about things over and over over and over

So yes, I am going to speak.

I am not going to shut my mouth and play silent.

My head is only a certain amount of pounds and it cannot hold

the weight I put there, so I let the rest slip off my tongue

Into your ear.



All the while, I am wearing this great big neon sign that says "just crush me"

"free sucker punches"

"and one hell of a good free fuck"

And that is what the mediocre would see. These men and their coke lines, those women with

their "oh Im straight but I want you to touch me" complexes and I

just can't deal with the disappointment any longer



I know that I am almost as good as it gets.



You can't pin me, you can't define me, you can't JUST love me.

And you cannot assume that I could love you.



Believe me, assumptions are very dangerous

That's why you and me and everyone else are always walking around in

those cold, metal suits.

Impermeable to the normal eye, but my eyes put holes in everything.

Even in my own black heart.

I had almost forgotten about

I had almost forgotten about this poem. I'm so thankful you left a comment, but I hope it really isnt/wasnt a chapter in your life. That kind of anger is just no good. :(
