On all the Valentine's Days,
of all my living years,
I have never found a way
to say the things to you
so that you would realize that

today I'm better off without
you. I get so tangled up
inside the dyes of your eyes
that I forget which way
this weaver's tongue should

fold. Even though I know
that being alone, this year,
is just for show, and tomorrow
comes either way. So, even if
the words don't come out right,

I'm going to hate you until this
walking Jesus is finally put to rest.
I'll dig a tunnel
from my window to yours

    the walking jesus who loves without cause

    who is "I", then?

    I've read this several times today, D. I like everything except the "hate" part... (I hate hate). I used to love hate like a victim of some domestic type situation... 'tis no longer the case. I've become rather suspicious of its worth, lol :D


    good to see you

    too sad...
