Don’t think
I’ll let you
Just lie there
All backwards cap
And grey
Sweatpants
For we both
Know when
I count
To ten
You won’t stand
Even half
A chance
"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
Don’t think
I’ll let you
Just lie there
All backwards cap
And grey
Sweatpants
For we both
Know when
I count
To ten
You won’t stand
Even half
A chance
I wouldn’t have
Invited you
If I didn’t want
You to come
Plus, I can’t go home
On my own
As my batteries
Are done
I’m not looking
For a relationship
I don’t want
To have sex
But we can walk
Just to talk
And maybe see
What happens next
When
The night is over
And the deed
Is done
I’ll just see
Myself out
Knowing full well
You have won
If only
I’d known then
That we would never
Have sex again
I’d have traced
Every inch of you
And etched it
In my brain
It was never
Real love
It wasn’t even
Infatuation
You were just a way
To brighten the day
And help offset
My frustration
I need you
To be nice to me
But also
A little rough too
Because after today
To keep the wolves at bay
Only both of those
Will do
As delightful
As one kiss may be
I know it will end
In tears for me
I am incapable
Of love, you see
So now I avoid
Such misery
Why don’t we stay?
Drink some beer
Eat our food
Enjoy ourselves here
I’d rather go home
And take you to bed
So we can have fun
In there instead
I knew it wouldn’t work
But I said yes anyway
I just needed to prove
That one afternoon
Couldn’t chase
My demons away
As wonderful
As one night may seem
I simply can’t agree
To such a scheme
As being with you
Even for a minute
Would leave a pile of shit
And me knee deep in it
All it really needed
Was for you to take my hand
To whisper to me, sweetly
And to say you understand
You are only
Required
For one night
So I can prove
To myself
That I’ll be alright
I did
What you wanted
I took you
To the brink
But you
Should know
That down below
I never
Felt a thing
You think
You’re so clever
You think
You know it all
Well let’s see
How smart you are
With your back
Against the wall
I’m not here
For your pleasure
I don’t exist
To be your toy
As from now,
Myself,
I have reclaimed
For me alone
To enjoy
I’m really looking forward
He said
To getting you
Under the covers
Don’t get too excited
She said
As it’s not like
We’ll be lovers
Because of how
It felt inside
I said I loved you
But I think I lied
I know
What happened
Between us
Was just
A one time
Thing
But I hope
You know
Your Cupid’s bow
Really did
Make my heart
Sing
Why don’t
We leave now
He said
Let’s get a bus,
Taxi or walk
We won’t
Be having sex
She said
But I’d love it
If we could talk
For getting me
To agree
You always seemed
To have the knack
But I’ve been moving on
All summer long
And now I know
I’ll never look back
Be it sweet
Or be it sour
You’d be on your knees
Within the hour
You never
Made me happy
You never
Made me moan
In fact,
Your moves were crappy
So I’d just get there
On my own
What do we have here?
He said
Hand snaking
Towards his crotch
I really can’t be arsed
She said
So I’ll just sit here
And watch
You’d better
Get them off
She said
Come on now
Don’t be shy
It won’t be long
Until the end of the song
And we’ll both
Be saying goodbye
Now that all
Is said
And done
I know
That you
Were never
“The one”
It’s never felt
Like that before
In fact,
I am quite surprised
I’d never have guessed
That you would impress
Whenever
You first arrived
Love’s young dream
This is not
Nor is it
A fairy tale
It’s a bunk up,
Of sorts,
Fuelled by lust,
Of course,
Along with a few yards of ale
“Oh, how I’ve missed this”
She said
Running her hands
Through his hair
That he wasn’t the first
Of the day for her
Was neither here
Nor there
And so
It’s farewell
On the longest
Night ever
For we must
Now part ways
At this break
In the weather
And although
Seeing you
Truly was
A pleasure
I know not
To repeat
Such a foolish
Endeavour
Not here
She said
Let’s do this
In private
We can’t count,
After all,
On the dead
Staying quiet
