Phones and Showers
Gut churned morning
when I wake and all bets are off
Cathy said I needed a big hurt
and Rose obliged the next day.
"It all just happened", Dennis,
"He touched me like I usually don't let you
so I could prove what
I seldom let you prove to me;
that I'm desirable.
But its OK, it was just
comforting he gave me,
somehow, it seemed, then, I needed it,
for your best wasn't good enough."
No faith when I needed you, but, you're right,
I was trying to separate us easily
and play at a bit of machismo too
and you called my bluff.
Thank you, I think...
I'd forgotten how hard
those single games could get
but now I should make it;
no one could possibly kick me
that hard again.
