Lexi
Lexi knew how to please a man;
and being a man I was pleased.
But she did that girl thing, with a
look,when we'd finished, that said,
"so you think this is all I want?"
Meaning she wanted my future:
But I was only nineteen, and I
had a long way to travel.
And when we went our different
ways, her look said,
"now I have to start all over again,"
But I knew she'd be OK; because Lexi,
she knew how to please a man.
(I picked visual five...reminds me of a certain bedspread)
