Thursday

Conversation enters the shallow zone
 I feel so alone on this side of the
 Booth
 We both play stupid as our feet collide
 I watch her eyes for clues i always find
 Sometimes life calls for strange
 Solutions.
 Sometimes life makes us avoid
 Conclusions...
 But not today.
 Every thursday we meet someplace
 Someplace out of the way to say words
 We don't say
 A couple hours, a couple drinks
 Forcing a glimpse of what the other one
 Thinks
 Sometimes life calls for strange
 Solutions.
 Sometimes life makes us avoid
 Conclusions...
 But not today.
 Why would i wait any longer?
 Why should it take any longer?
 The truth is bound to be stronger than
 Any of this...
 We sit and silence digesting the calm
 It feels so wrong to be holding this in
 The truth is out there when my elbow
 Slips
 Her red wine tips and we run from the
 Spill...
 But not today.
