saying no

ive never known the way to say no
but tonight i said it with my wrist to heart
we sat across and listened to the words
and glanced with knowing and youth
but he continued and we said silence
but broken i remarked of a violent honest sigh
and finally after time said no no

we walked walkings brisk up hill running
sip breaths quick giggles laugh
are you falling in love he asked
again we glanced and silenced his askings

eyes looking down back up and at eachothers hearts
after says of no's and silencing stares id like to share
your heart is like an ocean
like a dylan song all wise
we can speak in metaphors and laugh and i cherish your
askings and sighs

but others have blond hair and curly and long
with shudders and numbers on hands
id like to note our being alive with a loud sound
aloud down south youve come to meet
me and you side by side we sleep in seperate

spaces - grateful being close and friends
i know a love like yours is special currency
ill save it up and never spend a cent on anything
no never, just a saver and just a sayer
