  • S. colvin
  • Please no more therapy
  • Mother take care of me
  • Piece me together with a
  • Needle and thread
  • Wrap me in eiderdown
  • Lace from your wedding gown
  • Fold me and lay me down
  • On your bed
  • Or liken me to a shoe
  • Blackened and spit-shined through
  • Kicking back home to you
  • Smiling back home
  • Singing back home to you
  • Laughing back home to you
  • Dragging back home to you
  • I was so wary then
  • The ugly american
  • Thinner than oxygen
  • Tough as a whore
  • I said you can lie to me
  • I own whats inside of me
  • And nothing surprises me anymore
  • But forests in germany
  • Kids in the tuileries
  • Broken-down fortresses
  • In old italy
  • And claiming his victory
  • Shrouded in mystery
  • He went running away with me
  • Back in our home new york
  • Walking these streets forlorn
  • We all in our uniforms
  • Black and black
  • Doing that slouch and jive
  • The artist must survive
  • Weve got all we need we cried
  • And we dont look back
  • Thinking we had it made
  • Poised for the hit parade
  • Knee deep in accolades
  • The conceptual pair
  • But ever the malcontent
  • He left without incident
  • Vanished into thin air
  • Now I am always amazed
  • Words can fill up a page
  • Pages fill up the days
  • Between him and me
  • But the vows that we never keep
  • From bedrooms to business-speak
  • Make me remember how cheap
  • Words can be
  • And the letters I wrote you of
  • Were those of the desperate stuff
  • Like begging for love in a suicide threat
  • But I am too young to die
  • Too old for a lullaby
  • Too tired for life on the ledge
  • But I had a dream last night
  • Of lovers who walked the plank
  • Out on the edge of time
  • Amidst ridicule
  • They laughed as they rocked and reeled
  • Over the mining fields
  • Coming to rest on this ship of fools
  • But he just took polaroids
  • Of her smile in the light
  • Of the dawn of the menacing sky
  • And before they went overbaord
  • She turned and held up a card
  • And it said valentine
