Sometime when I hear the stories
of how people abuse themselves
and others

I just want to hug someone
and disappear down the well
of that feeling

And not return to here
where we make such a mess
of something as simple as love

Lise can feel that hug
and that’s what I treasure
in her

Like a note that makes you ache
to the bone
she can meet me there
