i’ve had a lot of men
who told me they couldn’t be with me
because i wasn’t happy
that they let me go
so i could find happiness
since i couldn’t get it from them
but you understand
or seem to at least
that there is no unending happiness
we can float on a cloud
or a feeling or a moment
but it can’t hang in the air forever
there will be days that ache
there will be days and days of bliss
but when, we can’t predict
so i think of you and your words
and there doesn’t have to be needless years of misery
but the balance of all things you and me
and i still love you
even though it might be too soon
and i don’t want to say it
i’d rather give that to you another day
a day with my mouth pink against your mouth
a day that just is what it is and nothing else
