Tell me, when you saw the old man touch me
did I remind you of your sister
I look as naked as he made me feel
The smells of abandonment on my neck, as it jerks
When the fist meets the jaw, and he fell
When the woman spills her coffee, and
The next stop is announced and I
look at you and you at me
Tell me, maybe
we are soulmates
When you rush off the train, the drag
of your dreads as the door closes
I think I miss you
If I asked your name would you
tell me
if I were to kiss your knuckles
would you allow me,
tell me your name and
I would tell you that
I've never been rescued before, never
would you believe that
if I tell you to go back with me
twenty years or tomorrow
Would you do it for me, again
