your face floats around my mind, day in and day out. like lingering cigarette smoke in a room with no doors or windows. i want to ask you how much you're paying for that space in my head, but i now you wouldn't understand the joke, and i'd never hear the punchline. i'd only feel the the blow of your words as they knock me flat on my ***, just like they always do, just like you always do. there's something about you i'm so insatiably drawn to, and maybe it's the fact that i can't have you, or perhaps it's because i can't remember what i see in you, and i want to find out what it was. you smoke pills like it's your job, you drink like a fish, and you're hardly interested in me. only when you're totally wasted do you want me; and not one second sooner. ****, this poem is ****. It's just word *****. I don't even know how to say what i feel about you.
