your smirk
tv remote in hand
changing channels like you were
saying something
last night i saw you in bed with her
again and again
i dreamt the future
woke up to the present like i knew it would come
but when i rolled over to you scared eyes wide in the dark
you always said just a nightmare
i would never
you should never
just go back to sleep
last night i heard you say the words
again and again
no more tongue on thigh
kisses circling neck like a noose
freedom tastes like
nights gone sour with rum and tears
if i could pull the ribbons from this tape
and find an empty mind
well then
i would have a smirk
tv remote in hand
i'd change the channel
go back to sleep and
i could be the girl
of your dreams
