You Can Turn On The Space Heater Now

You Can Turn On The Space Heater Now

A Poem by Alexandra

I wish I could’ve stayed in the car a little longer
Or at least take me up to your room
I want to complete a full cycle so I can start at the beginning
When I was just by myself and we didn’t know each other
You are literally everything I ever needed
But, we know it just couldn’t happen that way
So we smoke two cigarettes and I’m ready to walk out in the cold
Cause we’re at Kellogg Park, finally
You’re holding my hand
And we’ve already kissed a couple times
But, this is such a bad idea you keep saying
“You’re going to hate me so much tomorrow”
And I do, I really do
But I keep telling you to make this last because we’re never going to get it again
These are the heartbreaking moments in life where you have to relive it again in order to forget
I’ve been waiting on this block for too damn long, Diego
And loving you has been so f*****g hard for this little soul that carries so much weight
I love you, that’s not going to change.
So why do you have to say it back?
Why couldn’t you hold it in like you’re supposed to?

(I didn’t come home till 4 AM. Got a ticket on my car for parking on the wrong side. I never want to see you again.)
