you were a gutter ****

and I was wide eyed and wondering

what it would be like to sit out and rot at night

and laugh at things that weren't funny

you scared me kind of

your breath smelt like beer

I was excited still nevetheless

would you hold me like her?

could I be your bonnie for a week?

would I be the one to cry when they whisked you off to jail

like in all those movies from the 50's

could you pop my cherry

and make my daddy mad?

I want to be a possesion

thats all I ever knew

at least I'd be a fun one

with green eye shadow and short skirts

like those flowers

you see in the 7-11.

I felt solid
In my place
Strong enough to keep the pace

Until you came along

I was at ease
wasn’t looking
had no reason for wandering

until you came along

I still love her
I will not sway
But I can’t believe I’m thinking this way

You did nothing
Said even less
My head is spinning nevetheless

Since you came along

This thing will pass
Time will move on
I’m just afraid that after you’ve gone

My heart will fall
For another fling
And see how weak I’m becoming

Now that you came along
