You're everything that I want.
Not what I can have.
Always 5 steps back
7 inch distance, at least.
Less makes me stupid.
an intermission:
just let me tear my heart out
and hand it to you.
Pretty you may be
We know beauty killed the beast
Guess I'll ignore you.
You break what you have
Something good will come of it
But its not certain.
the second movement:
sorry for staining your rug
i'll just lick it clean.
You're a stupid jerk
With your stupid pretty face
Wish you had cooties.
I'd love to hate you
I'd love to love to hate you
Not hate to love you.
now, the conclusion:
rejection's not a sure thing...
acceptance, neither.
Let me walk away
While I haven't lost my head
And can play it safe.
If I'm not open,
Under my skin's all you'll get
Far from fragile things.

I said it on Facebook (what doesn't wind up there in the end, anyway?), but this is just a majorly cool poem, especially in the way that you can read individual haikus, or string them all together and they make sense! Amazing! I don't know why I love the last haiku/stanza/thingy so much, but it's such a great ending.
