Pathetic.
This word,
makes me feel worthless,
as your image
dances through my brain.
flashing across
my thoughts of you-
you're my hopeless dream
I fall for every night.
Pathetic.
this word,
is what I am.
I cannot sit in peace,
I cannot think
without you
popping up in my thoughts,
then FLASH.
Pathetic.
it shoots across
my thoughts,
like a banner on a T.V. screen
severing your image
in half,
leaving a bloody dream stain.
Pathetic.
even if I try,
I can't stop,
even if I want to,
I don't stop
and it is
...Pathetic
