wet and dry

you said it was about time to throw in the towel
(with your eyes)
but i wanted to tell you that i was still wet
that i still needed that fucking towel

and before i could turn around you were back in your life
straight
squeezed back into the mess of school, friends, love
straight
dissolver of fantasies
but not straight

oh do you know i wish
to be back inside that afternoon
with my head against your chest
with my hands against your breasts
with my fingers against your jeans
with my lips against your lips?

fairness is getting all the way there
all the poking around we did was not fair

don't leave me out to air dry.
