i watch you as you read the words
you wrote inside the books you read
and hope that you will hear the words
i spoke for you inside my head
my dreams are crushed quite every day
as you waste away on treatises
but never quite so much as when
you flushed out all my fetuses
i’d still consider loving you,
we’d work past all your hopeless flaws
and in the darkness of the night,
we’d bypass all of nature’s laws
it saddens me to see you waste
your life away on fruitless games
the things they say will fix your life
are those from which you’ve naught to gain
