10 stupidly lovesick unlovable little poems
So not a love poem
your shipwreck is sinking fast
I only play the ukulele
and you’re the fucking Titanic
…..
I spilled my cup of everything
it’s not easy to find someone
who has both cereal and eggs for breakfast
…..
you taste much better
when diluted with tears
salty does you justice
…..
if I swear off carbs forever
will my verse get lighter
my pizza for a brighter shade of grey
…..
I’d so much like to write and ask you
to come and make me smile again
you never did do that
but I’d like to write it, though
…..
in a normal love poem can I say
you still breathe storm
in the leftovers of my heart?
…..
you’re not much on my mind anymore
but this application
running in the background
is consuming battery
…..
mopping the corners of your basement
I tripped and fell down on the thought
that you might not exist
…..
the afternoon you told me I was a person
I choked on the sob of your breaking petals
she loves me she loves me not
…..
remember three nights ago
when I fucked you drunk?
that’s what you do in relationships
you said and
in the morning it was March outside
…..
