letra de second chance - online romance
i waited under cover of the moon. i waited there with
fifteen jokers, hymnals out of tune, vocalizing of
first loves and second tries. i waited for your eyes; i
waited for your eyes. finally you turned and looked my
way and you beamed at me as if to say, ‘boy, i’m
checking off my list of everything i like, and you’re
this and this and this.’ and i questioned for what do i
deserve this fate. to whom shall i indebt this honor? i
watch as you gesticulate, and call me over. finally we
speak above the din, and with a twenty-six-year-old
heartbreaker’s grin you set and launched a thousand
pitter-pats. you had me at ‘h-llo’ and girl, i’m saying
that’s quite a feat. a few minutes later and twenty
feet away, you were talking to your friends. i tried to
catch what you’d say, but i couldn’t from the distance
of my chair. i watched your fingers in your hair, your
fingers in your hair. and i pondered: would you have
given me a second chance if halfway through a high
school formal i asked you, ‘may i have this dance?’ at
age fourteen in california. i wonder would you have
batted eyes to block my gaze although i’d meant well,
my loafers low on action on that floor. on your table
there was a pen, and i saw you pick it up again and
again; i wondered what you were writing. ‘i’m in it,’ i
-ssured jenn, seated next to me. ‘i didn’t have to make
a choice, i just had to use my voice.’ i was scared i
might’ve struck you as genteel, but scr-ping up the
tater tots enough to make a meal i decided it was
best just to forget as i observed you place your bet.
you placed that little bet, and with that lotto pencil
multiplied your worth to me in exponentials. so i’ll
suffer you some boldened pride: believe me, girl, i’ve
got credentials. and if you’ll give me half a chance, i
promise i won’t need a second. (the smoke-fouled cotton
of your pants only washing needs, i reckon.) and maybe
we can walk someday to a city park or cemetary where
i’ll sing a song about the way you first appeared
before my gaze.
