She's Gonna
November 22, 2006
She’s gonna be like fourth grade
Stare, eyes meet, then quickly look away
A crush and love letters
Skipping as adults we’ll still play
She’s gonna know me
Even though we’ve never met
Telling me what’s in my head
To love forever in debt
She’s gonna be there
Morning to night and in between
Arms cradling when I collapse
Standing tall for me to lean
She’s gonna be the end
Staggering nights and past fights
All previous unfruitful journeys
Till they put out the last light
