Fuck Risk
I don't like to take risks
I won't share my coffee
I hate backseat drivers
Little things like that
make me and drive
you to distraction
(You'll have to drive alone. I hate riding with you.)
I want lower expectations
and less emotional
boo-boos to kiss.
Make the focus
softer the light
less moody
European soft-porn
has less angst than
our life together
not everything is earthshaking
(orgasms should always be)
Stand apart from me
be distant
and dark
the way you were when we
met Don't try to
push into me
I'm secretive
and mean
I admire people
with secrets
and busy schedules
Always available
makes me crazy
I don't want to
be always available
Be mysterious
Be moody
Be somebody else sometimes.
Be crazy with me.
I won't share my coffee

Little things like that

Make the focus

not everything is earthshaking

Stand apart from me
be distant
and dark
the way you were when we

and busy schedules
Always available
makes me crazy
I don't want to
be always available
Be mysterious
Be moody
Be somebody else sometimes.
Be crazy with me.

This is your poem at its essence:
European soft-porn
has less angst than
our life together
not everything is earthshaking
(orgasms should always be)
Stand apart from me
be distant
and dark
the way you were when we
met Don't try to
push into me
I'm secretive
and mean
I admire people
with secrets
and busy schedules
Always available
makes me crazy
I don't want to
be always available
Be mysterious
Be moody
Be somebody else sometimes.
Be crazy with me.

Cut out the rest, it is fluff. But the essence of the poem is perfect. And real and tragic and true and the only thing else that needs changing is the title.
