you aren't my first
you won't be my last

but i want you to be mine

but for whatever time i have
before i leave
can you love me?

have you seen grease?
i know,
who hasn't?
but
can we share those two words

the rest of the movie can exist
only in our memory
but
can we make
a
"summer lovin'"
a reality?

i know i'm not your first pick
i know i'm not your best choice
but i do like you

i tell you that when i'm drunk
when i'm high
when i'm sleep deprived
when i'm off my medication

but i haven't told you
that i like you

maybe you won't care
you'll think i'm gross
but

ever since i offered to let you live
with me
i've wanted you in my bed
i want to be in your arms again

for the fleeting time i had,
you held me
and my heart woke up
from its
sad
tired
slumber

i felt it burst from my chest
when you gripped my arm,
my head on your chest
you told me
i was soft
you liked to hold me

i don't know
why i didn't say
i liked it when you held me
