thick scales

I flip through them

like pages in a book

a stranger every night

a hesistation in every look

coincidences don’t happen

the first thing i said to you

why did you wait up

to catch the morning dew

look at me–crazy fool

tell me who you are

why are you in my hometown?

i need to run

far

stay with me, he whispers

it’s not that serious

who are you?

you make me curious

my scales are thick

i am diseased

don’t come near me

my soul is uneased

you have a true spirit

I want you to know this

he opens the door

and blows me a slow kiss

It pains me to know

that I will never trust you

so don’t fall too deep

for I know nothing is true

yes I’m your type

but don’t think much into it

I’ll tear down your walls

and block you in a minute
