rogue

i wear black for you
those awkwardly small t shirts of mine
and i hope you know its so symbolic at a time like this
i feel like a faithful catholic woman
rotating her rosary between her fingers
like its a big game of marbles
and that everything right now is skipping like a record
on one line repeating in my head
dont you worry dear
i love this right now
and i hate it all the same
i am the meadow
when you are the plain
and somehow the desert
has devoured your soul
i will go great distances
for the adventures
for whom the bell tolls
the gallows don't scare me
neither the gun
you forget i am cowboy
