Biography of a Hopeless Lover

Biography of a Hopeless Lover

A Poem by Rebecca

 

Let me tell you about my self –

according to statistics I am nothing without you.


 

I’m a speck - a miniscule dot on the radar, beeping incessantly in your ear.

I am the alien transplant that you were violated for.


 

I am the probe the inside, the suspect, the investigator.


 

I am the self-destructing parasite that hates to love you

but loves to f**k you.


 

I am the inside of your outside.

I am the thought that crosses your c**k, at least once as day.


 


 


 

And what of you?


 


 

Well, I could tell you about you how you are a brain biting bit of matter

causing my common sense to implode on itself.


 

It’s still there just scatter between my libido and a replay of another nights festivities.


 


 

According to statistics I am nothing;

Not friend nor foe.

Not fish nor fowl.


 

I am not just another in the sea.

And while I may run around like a fool my head is always firmly attached.


 


 


 

But what’s your excuse?

wow.
Not going to lie I would hate to be the subject of this poem.
I absolutely loved it.
It's not exactly comedic, but it has a bit of humor worked in there.
I like the structure too
very unique, it makes it seem original, not that the work itself isn't.
I love how it works science in there too.
Keep up the good work!

I think this is good. I liked the sturcture. The pauses in between made me stop and reflect on what I had just read. Good work!

About
There's very little to tell about myself - primarily, poetry is what I write for myself though I do occassionally write rants (essays) and short stories. I have a great love of metaphors and layering.. more..
