i caught the queen
2008.07.14 - 1pm

you were the old door that wouldn’t budge
the boulder that wouldn’t slide
the kite i couldn’t fly
but it was for the best

you were the wine i wouldn’t get a sip of
the cheese i wouldn’t get a bite of
the songs i couldn’t shuffle
but it was for the best

you were the first but not the last
and left a wound that wouldn’t heal fast
i was naïve, one of your pawns
but now i’m through with you

you were the first, i have no regrets
you had me whole, just under your tap
i was a thing, something you owned
but now i’m through with you

… i caught the queen!
