::: Blind :::

[gnutmeg]

I'm quite glad to be alone tonight
I can feel all my secrets
spilling out
like too much wine
pouring from the tea cup
into the saucer

would you be mine?

loneliness is my one true friend
wrapping me round
I can float on its sweetened lips
its taste leave me dizzy
and sore
until I can't contain it
all tumbles out on the floor

tonight, I will drink this cup
I will lick the saucer dry
like it was yours
I'm greedy when you can't see me
but I'm glad you're blind
when you do
