Love Door Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

You want all my lovin'.
But just pieces I get.
Just a piece to treat me.

You want my lovin'.
But a tease you give me.
A piece you think will treat and please.

I...I,
Don't like it that way.
No.
I...I,
Can't stop it when you start.
Feeling like a dope,
On a rope choked.

And I...I,
Try to fight it,
But I'm hooked.
With a tail you wag...
You like to see mine,
Hang and drag.

I...I
Don't like it!
I...I
Can't fight it or try.
You know I want more...
But my needs you ignore.

You want all my lovin'.
But just pieces I get.
And,
I...I
Don't like it!
I...I
Can't fight it or try.
You know I want more...
But the teasing of the piece that treats you keep
To weaken me,
Is kept in my mind...
Behind your love door!
And,
I...I
Don't like it!
I...I
Can't fight it or try.
The piece that treats you keep to weaken me...
With teases,
Is behind your love door.

You know I want what's more,
Behind your love door.
