Stoop Kid Afraid to leave his Stoop

Attached to this is the promise of nothing.
Just the way you like it, boy.

I bought a case of double chocolate donuts
from this establishment at 3 in the morning.

Your eyes glisten loudly under florescent lights.
I tell you, sometimes it's hard to look at you.

Because you are so god damn beautiful.
I think I've undressed you at least sixty times,

twice while you were not speaking to me.
It's o.k. to love someone, isn't it?

I don't know how to do anything else.
I see that I could change the world

with all this misplaced energy, but the
desire to kiss you is stronger than the

desire to live. some days. sorry.
