I wanna tell you you’re a sure thing.
You look so feral & commanding.
I mean, tremendous.
You hardly notice.
I don’t expect you to remember me.
Ah ha . . .
I can control it.
I just need myself.
I can memorize it.
I need some help . . .
sometimes.
I’m wasting my time.
I tell myself I don’t want anyone else.
I fold myself into little triangles.
I don’t expect you to remember me.
I don’t expect you to remember something
you hardly noticed.
But, yeah, it happened
& now your presence it commanding me.
I could go off my head.
I could be your girl instead.
I could get your attention.
& I’d love you.
I’d stay til your honest.
This is here & that’s there & that’s when & I guess
I’d give you my number & that’s when I’d remember:
the thing about love is it don’t last forever...
