Shine for me,
you useless lamp
it's apparent your light has gone out.
Without this light
you have no purpose
and your importance I'm starting to doubt.
I sit here
and demand luminescence;
but this you no longer provide.
Without this, my eyes
cannot see this room's beauty
and the obvious begins to hide.
Why are you broken?
You stupid lamp.
I might as well throw you away;
when all you must do
is glow for me
and you can't even do that today.
I'll tighten your bulb,
even buy you a new one -
yet you still refuse to turn on?
You pointless lamp
I shattered you to pieces
then I realized
you were never
plugged in
all along.
about me losing attraction for my ex.
i hate this poem.
