How can I say no to you?
The only word I remember is "yes."
Ive forgotten all the reasonable excuses I thought I could use,
theyve all expired along with the chocolate milk we used to share at lunch.
Blinking through a series of still-life pictures,
I wont remember.
Getting blurrier now.
Swaying back and forth,
this is all so obscene.
I tetter and totter between
tettering and tottering.
Like a flame devoring incadescent leaves.
I promise to keep my fingers crossed
Promise you anything you want.
Fingers crossed is the only security Ive got.
Dont look behind my back, I cant see around yours...
The promises we make each other are our loses looking
for reimbersments of my fingers crossed behind your back.
