red crush

by sarah - Scorpio

I have never been so lonely
in a room so filled with people
I would give anything for a match.
I have 20 cigarettes and
no fire.
I never have fire.
I will never have fire.
remaining  here is
sparkless.
and always will be.
I don’t understand how getting up 
can make it better.
there are no outs
right now.
I hear songs that were a hit three years ago
and think they’re old.
I think and I can’t figure out
why that is.
I only want men I can’t have.
