Icy Cold Shoulder Poem by Dorsey Baker

Baby I think!
I'm wasting my time
being here with you
because baby
that shoulder of yours
its as cold as it can be
and the atmosphere
is so suffocating
that I can hardly breathe!


Baby you aint showing me
no sign
that my being here!
is something that
you really want
or need
Baby I need
some healing
but you just want to
watch me bleed
Baby I think!
I'm just
wasting my time
being here with you
because I aint the one!
you've got on your mind

Baby I wish you had told me
before I come to call
that you just wasn't interested!
in me! at all
then I would have
stayed where I was
just looking
at the trees
and watching the leaves
as they fall
