A Brief Dalliance (2012)

By James Moats in Asheville, NC

for a moment there it seemed I'd found
a hole that fit my head so well

what waits for me back home asleep
as we're laying on the floor
not talking now, music's too loud
and my conscience bangs on the door

it's time to leave and it's hard for me
but I knew it all along
I'm not meant for this a brief dalliance
if that's what you'd call it

looking back on that
I felt alive
I felt revived
and there's always that
time that was mine
and was mine alone
that can't be bad
and at last

glad to see it was just a miscommunication
sentimental knee jerk reflex self-reflection
I called it right away
