One and a Half Poems
Okay, I wrote this seeded poem back in August. And then, because I am a dork, I remixed it.
Hopeless Case:
maybe it's the perfection of the unattainable
and maybe it's the thrill of the unrequited
and maybe i'm a hopeless case
but i love to love the untouchable
maybe it's the complacency of the bourgeoisie
and maybe it's the fear of failure
and maybe i'm a hopeless loser
but i love to have no ambition
maybe it's humanity's weakness for the underdog
and maybe it's the pleasure of the empty gesture
and maybe i'm a hopeless romantic
but i love to swing when the ball is in the glove
maybe it's the need for something to hold sacred
and maybe it's just addiction
and maybe i'm a hopeless fool
but i love to love you more than anything
maybe it's the self-righteous joy in forgiveness
and maybe it's habit
and maybe i'm a hopeless optimist
but i love to give you second chances
maybe it's the insidiousness of hope
and maybe it's an inability to learn
and maybe i'm a hopeless dreamer
but i love to think it'll be different
maybe it's the lure of tradition
and maybe it's the simplicity in submission
and maybe i'm a hopeless anachronism
but i love to give myself utterly up to you
Hopeless Case (Definition of Insanity Remix):
(The definition of insanity is:
expecting different results
from the same actions)
and maybe i'm a hopeless case
but i love to love the untouchable
(maybe i have intimacy issues)
and maybe i'm a hopeless loser
but i love to have no ambition
(maybe i have low self-esteem)
and maybe i'm a hopeless romantic
but i love to swing when the ball is in the glove
(maybe i just like to fail)
and maybe i'm a hopeless fool
but i love to love you more than anything
(maybe i have an addictiove personality)
and maybe i'm a hopeless optimist
but i love to give you second chances
(maybe i have self-destructive tendencies)
and maybe i'm a hopeless dreamer
but i love to think it'll be different
(maybe i just like to delude myself)
and maybe i'm a hopeless anachronism
but i love to give myself utterly up to you
(maybe i'm just crazy, baby)
