zoo exhibit

my love for you is a beast that has been
caged but not tamed
and not a sleek and pretty one

it looks out from behind hard bars
and eats you up with greedy eyes
and you are all it ever wants

it isn't feeding time now love
go sleep in straw for now, let lie
your keeper knows you're not a pet

tomorrow is another day
it's almost here
what you will get

what will be next?
another day of letting lie? or time
for something fresh and new
to die
