The Seasonal Advantage II
Was I asleep, or only half awake?
We slow danced in the living room
listening to Lucinda Williams
and I nestled my head between your neck and shoulder
whispering to you, that this hurt,
I was hurting and only you could make me feel safe,
like I belonged, like life had a meaning
however small or insignificant my print on it was.
Was I asleep, or only half awake?
