PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Staring

at my stone cold lover

She gives me nothing 

so I eat my own nails for breakfast 

we are cut from the same tattered cloth

and we just occasionally fuck 

  Already I am losing interest. 

But I am getting really great in bed

and the funny thing is....

I am so tired of mind altering sex

I just want to write poems. 

I just want a woman to read me poems and we 

talk about those poems 

and we have an emotional love affair about Neruda or

something 

Every day I wake up

and I give up on all of it

and I change nothing. 

It's exhausting.
