Cook in

The reason I can’t use drugs, 
Is because even when sober,
I find reality,
So unrecognizable from fantasy.
	
Unprovoked, your image emerges,
That light beam of a smile,
A face I can’t stop staring at, 
Even when I’m kissing it.

I’m really not one to lust (lies),
But I hope for a feeling more meaningful, 
Still, WOW! What a sweet small of a back,
My hands are forever grateful.

I am writing this, really, because I feel stuck,
Because attempting to move deeper,
Is a gamble with luck,
It's a contest with option A who hovers around you af.

It's a demanding of affection, 
An admittance to needing your attention, 
A hoping to adhered expectation, 
And disgustingly open communication. 

I can’t have that,
I was gonna be a bad  this year,
As red as I wanted to get this month,
I'm saving my tear.
