Second best
March 03, 2010
"I'll settle for you, if you'll settle for me," she said.And I'll make it up, if you'll lie in this bed.
"And I'll give a little, if you will too," she said.
And I'll lose a little me, and I'll be a little you instead.
"And I'll never leave, through sickness and health," she tried.
"And I'll always know that this is best," I lied.
Because I'm a little scared, and I know that you are, too. But if you'll hold on to me, well then I'll hold on to you. And if I'm not what you want, well then you just close your eyes.
Because we either die alone, or we compromise.
