[bodytext] => mon infidelite, couverte dans peau... because he never called to say hello at 3 am, falling asleep to talk radio, science-fiction fantasies... because he couldn't play piano (and i hated him for that)... because he never sang to me from stages lit with blue haze, velvet always - because he never sang at all unless he knew i wasn't listening... because he spoke only english, no matter the words... because there were no french seductions in his smile, a smile seen only by street cars, cab drivers and girls with black hair, bold voices, boyish frames... because he never took me to lunch at the market, wine tastings or concerts in clevland - jazz music and bottled merlot, fermented, deep-staining my lips (the want i had for yours)... because he was standing right in front of me... because he didn't have another lover of his own... because i was a fool... a fool i was for you - sitting silent in the back row, wishing to have known you before you were famous... wishing to have known you before... wishing to have known you... the shallow thoughts of a shattered mind-frame - wishing now that i could have his never often, and give your always back to you...
