just a little bit stronger
just a little bit wiser
just a little less needy
and maybe i'd get there.

just a little more aware

hiking up my skirt
asking for your time.

pulling up my skirt
staring blank ahead
clearly, clearly i remember
days of useless crying
almost feeling dead.

perhaps, i could control myself
perhaps if i was...
