so far
i have typed
nearly a dozen
(possibly more)
different poems
each attempting to express
the depth of my longing
to see you undress
(your emotions, of course)
let fall the curtains
that dare hide away her heart
pick the lock
on her cage
burn me at the cross
for my sins
greatest of which
being my sloth
my laziness
my slowness
my inability to aptly tell you
in 100 or fewer words
how thoroughly
i have fallen for you
