To a Girl of Summer, 2012

i wanted you so much i lost you,
before i even had you, clumsy me,
i didn't know you, i didn't have to

i blindly made the moves
should've been more on my toes
i stumbled hurt myself it still shows

you either had someone
didn't want my cheeks
had no time for another fan

i 86'd myself from your turf
bowed out all graceful like
hid out, got over, but only if...

now where am i, where are you?
none of my business anymore
all i hope for when i hope

is that you're true to your own heart,
healthy in your ways, happy in your life,
satisfied by your art, long-lived in your days

Adios
