And if I’m one of the ones you like so much

September 2015

And if I’m one of the ones you like so much
why did I say no
when you asked for a kiss
it was a joke that had half the sincerity
–– not enough to take seriously
–– enough to arouse with possibility
what is left unsaid
what is left undone
not what words mean but what they suggest
not what we do but what we could
And if I’m one of the ones you like so much
that’s all that there is to it
