feed me lies with teaspoons of sugar that render me docile
waves of elation will run through me
and i will thank you when your finished
we may even hold hands beneath street lamps
late at night walking back to your apartment
i will sigh my big sighs and cry my big cries
when you disappoint me
just like i smiled my big smile and laughed my big laugh
when you moved me in the beginning
and when you are gone, weeks later
i will let him put his arms around me
because that's what you do when you have to move on
they will be warm and willing
but not as strong as yours
and when i go home
it will make me miss you more
