Dope Joy Fresh
Laughing my head off
It could be dopamine
Or joy
What, she asks
What drives me insane with mirth?
Why, think I
It’s the realization
That you no longer are mine
I am protecting she to whom I made a promise
Yes, her
The one whose heart I promised
Not to fragment
She loves you, you know
My mother, I mean
But she knows that laughter
It’s the way I hope to laugh
When you inevitably,
Predictably leave
Yes, I may not be
The one whose hand you don’t shrink from
But humour me a while
And hold me yet
And I may not be
The one with whom communication is much desired
But let’s play lovers for a bit
And pretend this letter
That call
Is an expression of what is
I may not be
And yet because I am
The one whose love is yours to take
The one who you claim to love and yet tell none
Pleasure me
