I saw you today
oh love that broke my heart.
As I walked away
I thought of our days apart.

I bet you thought my heart would race,
or bear some feeling of doubt
as from you I turned my face,
and turned my self about.

But, I fought the urge to laugh instead,
I promise my dear, it's true.
Because the new lover in my bed
is better, by far, than you.

I'm looking for some puppy love.
Some kitten, gerbil, guinea pig
love. Any kind of
unconditional love, really.

I'm looking for a place to rest.
Or to recharge, reboot, recoup
myself. A place to
regenerate my heart, really.

I'm looking for propinquity,
Or amity, ardency, affinity
for another. A form of
uncomplicated connection, really.

I'm looking for something else.
Something different, unusual,
extraordinary. Anything,
anyone but you, really.
