risk

get together in a park at night

won’t touch it’s not right but we’ll talk

come together with compatible neuroses

we can build a map

land and sea

but i don’t trust us

not to hurt each other

barter information to keep peace and

mark our territory like animals

we’ll speak fast get ahead of our fears

outwit outrun our tears

one point won

one point undone

moving pawns across a chequered lawn

how can we trust us

not to hurt each other

barter information to keep peace and

mark our territory like animals

when does loyalty end

and friendship have to bend?

knowing for so long

what’s left to defend

knowing for so long

loving and being

loyal to the last drop

until love’s leaving

when does loyalty end
