My Apologies to the Wind

I’ve tried to write my misery down on paper
Just as I wrote about love
But it’s much safer.

I’ve had Nothing for a while now

I take it to the park

and walk it around.

People ask me how I got it,

“I looked intrinsically,

Nothing was what I found.”

I tried and I tried

To climb inside your blood cells-

immunization

Their lives had begun

wandering right out the door-

a room filled with doors

I don’t care

what your name is

or your favorite color.

Sit your heart on my

shoulder-

stand a little taller.

Come to visit me

For I am moving away

I’ll have a queen bed
