you said "send me stationery
to make me horny"
so i always write your letters
in multicolor
decorating envelopes for foreplay
damn extended metaphors,
i get carried away
and nothing says "i miss you"
quite like poetry carved in your door
with a stanley knife
i cherish with fondness
the day before i met you
and on your request
i compile a list
of my top five resolutions
for this year
i declined because i decided
that i do not believe
in the new year anymore
and you must confess
that at times like these
hopefulness is tantamount
to hopelessness
and i accept that it's time for a change
but not in places like this
or with people like these
