There is a lizard
trapped in my bathtub; the climb
is too steep for him.
He fears my help as
I fear hurting him, for he
is a fragile thing.
I can’t stop dreaming of you
  and your astral projection
won’t stop sauntering
into my alternate universe
where our bodies collide
and you wriggle and writhe
underneath me.

I’ve become fixated with you
  and all the sounds you make;
your ragged breaths
and guttural guffaws
and the quiver
in your libidinous voice.

I find myself daydreaming
of your magnificent eyes,
bristling bright with fervor
as my vocal chords
give more pleasure
to your skin
than your ears.

I wish I could sleep for days
just to have you
      All to myself
on the alternate plane
of pleasure
Weak title but meh.
I am atoms
bouncing from one idea
to the next

I am conflict
internal woes
screaming through text

I am ambiguous
relatively uncertain
of anything at all

I am worried
that in five years
you will be my downfall

I am fearful
of hurting you
and myself in the process

I am wasted
drinking to forget
your mouth and words confessed

I am foolish
for wishing you
could be what I want

I am sorry
if my actions (or lack thereof) have
led you to daunt

I am confusing
and you did not ask
for any of my baggage

I am truthful
and told you from the start
I was damaged (more or less)
