Lover Boy

lover, there are things you cannot ask me. you cannot ask me if i still feel your breath on my neck in the early morning. if i still see your face inside the moon. you cannot get down on your knees, hands in prayer head bowed down to a higher power and ask for forgiveness. lover, you don't have the right. you fight dirty, all tooth and nail bloody and mangled but only on the inside, darling - only on the inside. lastly, lover, you don't get to ask me why i didn't stay (you held the door wide open).
