Pool

We know where to find eachother,

He lives ten minuets from my street,

He knows where I work,

I know where he plays pool.

Where his friends live,

And drink and do drugs.

We know where to find eachother.

 

So instead we will make a point

Of not crossing paths in this small town

We will not speak eachothers names,

And if someone mentions the other,

We will brush it off, like it was just a dance.

It was not nights of making love,

Nor romance,

 

We know where to find eachother

I wonder if he longs to bump into me too

Accidently maybe,

on a friday night,

When I'm meant to be working

And he's playing pool...
