it amazes me how much I want you
we seem to fall out every time
and again when I feel that we’re closing in
you say “look, I really can’t pull this off, not this time”

what’s with all these people?
who are they?
what do they want?
I don’t carry drugs in my pocket
though you said it would bring us closer
I don’t think you meant to each other
but to something else
someone else
