But I don't want to be right

Oh no, you weren't my

lullaby singer, my troubadour, but

in my darkest nights I

knew I could  count on you

                                                                                                        always.

 

 

Always there with your eager

words (eager hands), with your

incessant desire for more,

(always more) and that's when I

                                                                                                         knew

 

 

you were the one I needed.

The way you were crushing

on other meaningless girls was

                                                                                                       something

 

 

I could easily overlook.

You were here and it

was all that mattered to me.

And the sour feeling in my heart

                                                                                                         was

 

 

not important (right?) But then,

why are you the world to me, when

I am only one tiny star in the

constellation of your life? In my bed,

at night, (every night), I wish I am

                                                                                                        wrong.
