Complacency glided through my veins.  

A rusty heart beat melded to a marching band.  

I grow envious of the insipid.  

 Dysfunction

makes for a lonely companion.  

 The remnants of desire linger on your tongue.  

I gather, that you think of me,  

Watch me, 

often.  

I feel your eyes scanning my body 

 like some cheap self checkout.  

Sometimes I feel alone.  

You- 

make me feel alone.
