    its about a guy who I have, over the years, developed intensely strong feelings for. very spontaneous and unedited

    When did you first worm your way into my mind?
    I might've smiled at you that day (in those select days we
    were thrown together)
    That! - might've changed everything.
    But I remained cold in face as I stood by my machine:
    What emotions might I have felt as you worked away in yours?
    I might've let you know.

    In our human form we are consistently harassed
    By who? By Fullness and her elusive, spectral face?
    It dies upon entering our flesh, and there we've never left before,
    and her skin never touches mine
    and my skin can never reach out to his
    Despite where we sit,
    two human, human forms in blackness.
    He dangles from a rope, staring at me in my shattered bleeding costume
    Shaking his head in disgust, apalled, and for once I cannot dig out any words
    to interpret and to flatter.

    We share a brief moment together in silence,
    Does he hesitate?
    And then a tugging from far down the line reminds him
    of wives, and babies, and hunts of The Bird
    and handsomeness, paired with all the pretty glitter,
    together in curves and spheres.
    Of balance, yin and yang, the True Godly Way,
    and of approving Grandma eyes, and never draining words
    to use behind a fence of white and further through a door of red.
    And he slowly glides down the rope, surpassing my time and age
    leaving me alone, shaking in the dark.
