Ordinarily I
Have the decency to hold my tongue
Then eventually I
Wind up opening a vein
Rather pointedly you
Asked me if I planned to turn and run
That's a certainty
When I'm this close to the drain
But it's so good to see you
Intermittently I
Have to tell myself we have no past
And essentially that
Wanting you is just insane
There are those who say it's
Customary for a man to ask
In actuality I
Have been known to jump the train
But it's so good to see you
It's a foregone conclusion
It's a languid delusion
