First Date

First Date

A Poem by Adam Lain

I didn't intend to catch a blade and not sacrifice fingers,
nor was it a decision to love without countermeasures, but,
idiocy are standards, so don't raise yours, thinking I can descend above,
for I am a simple man; a man with low whispered principles and tiny utterances.

Don't cleave your ambitions to lay seeds of our engagement,
for the buds, oh how they lay! the contempt I have for this unrequited fruition,
yet to my dismay you will let it be,
you wouldn't have it any other way, only for me.

So I will take the scythe, with a cloak draped clad in cliche,
and I will shave away at the earth, tearing at the soil; scars that crumble,
and I will deprive this of taste, leaving a unfulfilled, dull afterthought.

I will rip the flaws away, so plain and beautiful,
and in the end I will make you loath me,
so much so that you will only stay so I can mirror your experience;
A self sacrificing pleasure you will play with, oh this dirty love we will grow.

I hope this beginning, your land, will stay barren and infertile.
I despise this thought, your Eden of insecure measures.
Don't take me with you...Oh God leave me ignorant of your brilliant love!
Your just not my type
