She clutches onto his protruding hips

for dear life

Going down

she is going under



She wishes he were emotional

or something approaching tenderness



Outside the weather beats a little harder

than her heart



There's nothing that will keep them together



She makes love

He makes time pass a little less painfully

One and the same



This time it could be everything



It's emough reason for staying

It's enough to make you want to die

The hardest part is trying

not to make a menn of it all



It's all we have to be thankful for
