In ***** socks
& with rusty hearts
we’d swing off docks
Throwing mindless darts
Cooked deep tan
Freckled cheekbone
A sizzling dripping pan
We didn’t answer the phone
Swinging into a wide lake
On a salty afternoon
Restless but wide awake
In a humid summer’s June
Downing a bottle of wine
We stole from your brother
Watching the sun lick the horizon line
The night dropping in to smother
Can we go back to the days?
When we weren’t caught in this maze
But instead in the suns rays
We lived in a lovely blue haze
