Ode to (Your) Solipsism
Sneaking into my bed before midnight
To shelter myself from modern society
I have an urge for cuddles
Not because there is a future
But because it keeps my cardiovascular muscle
Warm, somewhat
How many fucking times
Can I wrench my heart apart
Over someone
Only willing to suck my soul dry?
And so I become giggly
Cheese, butterflies and all
the usual crap that ensues.
For a few days, a fortnight perhaps
Until the dust settles
I have been through
Perfect shit storms
Toxic preludes
Pathogenic flings
Often I feel the urge
To get wasted
And confess to you
What sorts of creatures hide in
The abysses of my derelict heart
Our conversations haunt me
Nonchalant cliché
I will invent excuses and lies
To feed myself later.
