Red blinds.
I’m red blinds.
Red blinds
Reject me.
‘Go then.’
‘I’m going.’
Masochist dreamers,
Dream of you.
I dream of you.
Tell me,
Is she special?
Does she do everything for you?
I know you want someone who won’t.
But will,
By force.
I’m your drug.
I saw it
In the look you gave me.
What was it?
Hatred?
Anger?
Regret?
I regret.
I regret not grabbing you.
Not kissing you.
Not being everything to you.
Not showing you
What a masochist I can be.
I’m the red head.
I can wither on the ledge,
Just how you like.
But you love it less.
Because you know it’s me.
You could never love me.

Drink Champaign on staircases,
And never be a fool.
Ignore Spanish beauties,
I wish you could.
Dead mice under deadlines,
I guess that’s all I was.
Noir isn’t quiet in my top five,
But “I’ll Be Waiting” is quite a line.
You broke my heart in one dream,
And mended it in another.
You swept it across the floor in some,
And lost a piece in others.
I’m the fool
Who lives for your words.
You truly are
A teacher.
Your gritty truth.
A romance heart
Is all you have
To offer.
But a younger heart,
That so desires,
Is looking for a
Sense of fire.
You are broken,
Just admit it-
You don’t need
To hide yourself
Behind your humor.
You set yourself
Up for disaster.
But I can’t bear to see you fall,
Down our Champaign staircases.

Catch My Heel
15 months ago
Catch my heel.
Catch my heel.
Catch me lying there.
Are you surprised that you were lying with me?
Just tell me -
Don’t joke.
You spoke too soon
And stopped too suddenly.
The silence struck me,
Struck me dead.
And while you walk behind me,
I pray that you say more than
Sorry.
And never stop
Walking behind me.
And never stop
Catching my heel.
