has its own message
for this cheek is no lip
My affections merely dipped
into a wishing fountain that doesn't give back
For, inevitably, she
turns this cheek to me
but doesn't kiss back
"Baby, I love, you, but not like that."
It's okay. I survive.
I just take my liberties
This thigh, these cheeks, I caress as I please
All the time knowing
I'm doomed to just me.
I pretend I'm happy
and no different can you see,
but the truth is I'm still lonely
and there's not one lip for me.
So I huddle under freindship
it's my only link, you see
to the girls I love to be with most
but would never be with me.
Perhaps there is That Special One
waiting out there for me
but 'til then I must be satisfied
just kissing this cheek.
