Watch me twirl as the
candlelight flickers against
the peeling wall paint.

It's a dizzying
game we play; no rules, no ends,
no repercussions.

But.

Will you hold my hand
so I lose myself in you
as the wide world spins?

The author's comments:
An example of what I do at one in the morning and/or when I'm feeling particularly angsty in the boyfriend field. Also, haikus are funtimes.
