As Easily Regret
| |
Our sheets lie crumpled, stale untidy mess
I've not cleaned up yet, no. Your cigarette
half finished, half remembered at its worst
extinguishes what's left of longing, yet
its ash makes your scent hang on all the less.
I wanted you with me here longer, yes.
Was vagueness in my eye that wound a net?
I want you still. That must be love, I guess,
or something I'll as easily regret.
But heed your friends' advice - Were you to let
me keep you here, it'd be to wild excess
you'd best abandon. Home and family first!
And that way, as your allies no doubt stress,
you're trained to handle every foreign threat.
