Emotional Idiot

[Eumenides]

I love this poem.

Maggie Estep

I'm An Emotional Idiot

I'm an Emotional Idiot
so get away from me.
I mean,
COME HERE.

Wait, no,
that's too close,
give me some space
it's a big country,
there's plenty of room,
don't sit so close to me.

Hey, where are you?
I haven't seen you in days.
Whadya, having an affair?
Who is she?
Come on,
aren't I enough for you?

God,
You're so cold.
I never know what you're thinking.
You're not very affectionate.

I mean,
you're clinging to me,
DON'T TOUCH ME,
what am I, your fucking cat?
Don't rub me like that.

Don't you have anything better to do
than sit there fawning over me?

Don't you have any interests?
Hobbies?
Sailing Fly fishing
Archeology?

There's an archeology expedition leaving tomorrow
why don't you go?
I'll loan you the money,
my money is your money.
my life is your life
my soul is yours
without you I'm nothing.

Move in with me
we'll get a studio apartment together, save on rent,
well, wait, I mean, a one bedroom,
so we don't get in each other's hair or anything
or, well,
maybe a two bedroom
I'll have my own bedroom,
it's nothing personal
I just need to be alone sometimes,
you do understand,
don't you?

Hey, why are you acting distant?

Where you goin',
was it something I said?
What
What did I do?

I'm an emotional idiot
so get away from me
I mean,
MARRY ME.

Oh, sorry...I thought you were looking for me

 

[Eumenides]

Who knows?

Maybe I was!

 

[funlady]

Great poem..sums up much of what I'm feeling today.

 

[InnocentAngel81]

i love it, i am going to write it down later

 

[Eumenides]

I'm glad you guys liked it.

Don't we all get to feeling like that sometimes?

Where we just don't know exactly what we want? Or when we get what we thought we wanted, we find out it's too much or not enough?

*sigh*

Or is it just us womenfolk?

 

[Nora]

bhahahahahha! I worship you, Emoodie! I really, really do! That is wonderful!

But I'm all done with being overly emotional, dammit. I mean it! *grin*

 

[Eumenides]

Gotsta love it, huh, poblanita?

 

[Pixie]

Oh dear, that sounded way too familiar...

 

[deliciously_naughty]

yikes...and you've never even met me...how's you describe me so perfectly?

 

[Nora]

I just wanna dip that poem in chocolate and laugh and cry while I nibble on it's toes. Um. Or something like that!

 

[Eumenides]

yikes...and you've never even met me...how's you describe me so perfectly?

'Twasn't me, dear. Though I've had those thoughts.

You should hear her read it aloud.

It's a fucking riot.
