I swear I saw it as it happens…

Saw the joy rise in your eyes.

Like bubble comic Book Captions.

Thought; He’s believing all my lies.

New info was Fresh Bounty.

In that moment I just froze.

Like some cowards of the county.

I won’t become like one of those.

You were comfort in your beauty.

You knew secrets of the breeze.

To myself I have this duty.

Not to live there on my knees.

There’s a Cafe and there’s a moral.

And there’s a stool there at the bar.

And there are reasons that are plural.

That leaves you sitting where you are.
