do i just
love the feeling
being batted
with lashes
sure strangled
with lies
when her ability
to set me free
burns out
with goodbyes

did i just
love the feeling
being the fool
that'd just might
do the things
she can't abide
but her ability
to set me free
was now a keep
she can't confide  

i think, i did
love the feeling
being wrapped
with luring rhymes
being strapped
with stolid signs
that though her ability
to set me free
accords—it now
declines
