Love Junkie Blues

Needy
Desperate
Desire mounting me
filling the chest cavity
with shaved ice
cutting me off at the knees
while the small voice
in the back of my brain
calls me a stupid bitch
for not guarding my heart
and my heart?
Oh, it calls for you
it calls for you
it calls for you.
I should be so lucky
to bask in thirty seconds
of your love
before my  blood freezes hard
and the tears i don't dare
scald me
from the inside out.
