poems i write at 2 a.m. and decide to post

twenty three

i love you in a way

you couldn't understand

take me by the heart

hold it in your hand

drag me to the beach

bury me in sand

or just hold my corpse

and laugh at this dead end

i can't stand them

those who love you so

obsessive and jealous, yes

but oh how far i'd go

i crave your attention

i want all your time

i need you right now

need you to forever be mine

you've already agreed

haven't you, darling,

you're just as bad as me

and we're both spiraling

so take me by the hand

and love me right down

i'm willing to withstand

the love in which i drown
