Another Song

You'll go. Everybody has to go. Just give me one moment alone. I know it's stupid and it's wrong, but let me take you in my arms and whisper low: there's something I can't say. And you'll smile and say I know. And we'll both know we'll never know. And then you'll turn and go.

Then leave. I know you have to leave. Just give me one moment alone please. Just to see. It's useless and it's sick. But let me kiss your perfect neck and press your breasts against my chest and confess: there's so much I won't say. And you'll turn your face away. There will not be another day.

And that's OK.
