funny me

funny
how you make me
feel.

funny
that i should let you
make me
feel.

knowing
as i do—
knowing me,
knowing you.

funny
i should be so taken,
mistakenly
staking claims
where there is no ground.

funny
the sounds
that a heart can make;
that my head
pounds,
as it beats
against my thigh.

funny
(sigh)
that i
should find
myself
so willing.

to wait
to hunger
to wonder

knowing how
unsound
unsafe
unfulfilling
such vacuous yearning,
yearning without

hope
promise
fulfillment

can be.

funny me.
