Giddy as Gilligan

with your every step

you walk on

everyone I have

loved like they

were nothing

but rose petals

on the floor

of a hotel suite

with each thing

you say

you speak

over the

hurtful words

repeating

inside me

like a movie

showing in

an empty

theatre

and with

each peck

on my lips

you give

the big

kiss off

to the

cast of

castaways

who have

been stranded

on my Island

goodbye

you Gingers

and Mary Anns

I have been

rescued

by a face

pretty enough

to sail a thousand

ships
