Girl in Calico

It's on your lips

Held like a fist

A concussive wish

To know you

You still laugh

To talk of the past

Now contrast

We're strangers

I still recall the day that we meet

You were wearing your calico dress

And out of all the things that I regret

Honey you are not one of them

We are mirrors

The color clear

As we disappear

Life reappears

Our eyes are flint

I meant what I meant

Sickness

And health

I still recall the day that we meet

You were wearing your calico dress

And out of all the things that I regret

Honey you are not one of them
