Is the key
to opening her up..
supposed to fit the lock
upon her heart?
or else upon her head?
Seems that it better be
a master key to both..
or else I might just be
shit out of luck..
in other words,
about as good
as dead

But then again..
there always is the option
to just love myself instead.
For, one grows
rather quite accustomed
to the luxury of holding space
just for themself..
especially on sleepless nights..
upon the cooler side
of a queen-sized bed.
