Purple Snot

 

I am Grace, I am Bee

I am She

Who is not.

I'm not all here

Nor am I there.

I'm threading fingers

Through your hair.

Kiss me softly

But speak firmly.

Is that alright?

Just tell me frankly.

Soyez-honette

Car je vous aime

Mais je veux plus.

Embrassez-moi,

S'il vous plait.

Hold me tightly,

Don't let go.

I'm sure I love you.

I'd thought I'd said so.

But maybe not.

Now I've forgot.

But that's not right either.

Forgotten? Let's try again.

Hi, I'm Grace, Hi, I'm Bee.

I am She

Who loves you

But needs you, too.

Tough-girl butch, so protective

We forget she needs protection.

Hold my hand

Please don't let go.

I need you here

Wipe this stray tear.

So glad you're mine

Mine, mind, mine?

Mines blow up,

Il fait boum!

Minds are corrupt

And there's no room

Inside mine

For all my thoughts...are...

Swirlingwhirlingroundandroundinanillegiblemess.

Only two things are sure, and one is you.

Car je vous aime, je vous adore.

I'll love you, forever more.
