“A Stop and Start Romance”- by Joe Kibler

You’re a sharp dresser,
An easy impresser,
Beautiful and witty,
Got me down and feeling shitty,

The way, you only can do,

It’s extraordinary,
That I’m here so voluntary,
You make me imagine myself,
Loving you,

The way, I only can do,

We’re just wrong for each other,
You’re an ego, I’m a stutter,
Make me feel like drowning myself,
In some wine,

It’s so fun to find an easy trip,
You make me yours,
And I make you sick,
To be with me is an infectious disease in your IV drip,
But I tell you’re not better than this,
You’re like stained glass shattered in bits,
Stuck between my toes,
And I don’t know,
And I don’t know,

You’re an amalgamation,
Of fear and sensation
An obstacle I need to resolve,
Enough time wasted,

On me and you, in only a way we can do,

Stop loving,
Start hating,
Your beauty makes me feel so violated,
Stop loving,
Start hating,
I’ll stop loving, loving you,
I’ll stop love loving you.
