Dear.

A Poem by dukovan

Put it to a poppy folk-rock melody, a happy one. Thats what I'm feeling.

You needed a friend.
I just happened to be around in the midst of your trend.

I wanted a phrase
that I could speak to your brain but just yelled stupidly into your face.

We needed a life.
We skipped so much school that I had no choice in calling you wife.

I covered your ears
and told you the truth of my bold but contradictory fears.

Now I know
that you hate me too.
In a way I always knew.

I needed a job,
so I skipped stones on the lake where I hoped I would drown.

You don't need much,
but somehow I pushed your button right off that long dock.

Your out of sweaters.
I say your trying to look cute for everyone else, but I know better.

I'm out of my mind,
at least for a while until it warms up inside.

Now I know,
you don't need me too.
Never say you do.

How could I have known,
that you were so damn good at implying in prayer on the phone?

Our sarcastic tones,
are stained on the walls and Jesus' faces looks so cold.

We're still pissed off.
The neighbors don't know since we've been cutting them off.

Then you hung up.
Though you called later on, so really whats lost?

Now I know,
that I love you too.
Lets never say we do.
