Untitled #549 (2014)

I’m tired darling.
                so very, very tired of this.

In the middle of the noise,
I remember that it’s only been a few weeks since her last seizure,
I remember all them folks and what I owe for my proofless knowledge,
I remember leaving her to pain, because it scared me,
I remember, I remember, I remember…
You’ve got a leg draped over some gay man at the bar,
and you’re smiling at him…

                                                    and I just want,
                                            i just want to be touched.

I’m tired darling, and it ain’t no one’s fault.

there are times I just…
    [lips to lips speaking by finger-tips,
    my breath yours,
    lost and stupid with the lust of you,
    laying afterwards basking in the heat of you,
    whispering little nothings in the dark,
    holding you and holding and being…]
I’m just tired.

I’m just tired.
