Heartbreak Hotel

[Five poems for a story I'm writing, but also because we've all been there. Antedated to Valentine's day.]

Your eyes stop my heart
Your eyes warm my soul
Your picture alone causes my stomach to knot
I want your attention
I want your affection
I want you to text me back

</3

It hurts me to think of you
fishhooks in my heart
I want to spend some time with you
I can't bear to be apart
I know you love another
fishhooks in my heart
but maybe you'll still talk to me?
I can't bear to be apart


</3

Your head on my chest
feels the best
I don't mind the snore

I watch you fix your hair
put on underwear
be with me some more

</3

A picture you sent keeps me company

I hope you don't mind

I like to think it's just for me

It's what solace I can find

</3

All I do is to impress you

I'm not, but I'm trying

You see, without your attention

I feel like I'm dying
