They make deals
in flashlit bangs
with kisses
new year people
Make me thin
wish
me
comfortable in my own skin
finally
like yesterday
I’m sure I knew
when
I was small
Make me rich like tomorrow
buy a boat
and float
aways pretty
prettier than me into sparkling seas
the one I can never see
even in reflection
Make me strong
enough
stronger than I was
when only me dared call my
strong’s bluff
but in silence
who would know
it’s just me
a new year
like last past
a leap into
future
Make me different
I don’t care
who they would see then
when
drop a ball
turn a clock
Make me someone I am not
drop a ball
turn a clock
it’s Ok
who would see then
in
flashlit bangs
with kisses
hugs
just a me
but …
but …
tick …
tock …
drop a ball
turn a clock
maybe a me could be just a me
how could that even be
but …
but …
don’t get ahead
of
ourselves
or do
get ahead
of
ourselves
years come
fall
fail
drop a ball tick
turn a clock tock
again
