Love is Never Having To ..... 


You say you've lost your 
innocence 
- but never posted a reward - 
You swear that you were really 
shy 
- not badly misinformed - 

I love you 
while you number all my body 
parts with felt-tip pens 
and wonder why you only comb your cat on just 
one side 

We'll build ourselves a picket fence, 
'cause barbed wire tears 
kid's clothes 
and stay up watching daylight savings take effect... 

We'll file for moral bankruptcy and stay right here in bed 
until we feel 
our back teeth 
float right up, 
like fur balls in our heads.
