goldfish crackers

familiar faces, empty minds.
new acquaintances with hidden false motives.

i don't want to pretend you're not mine.
you wouldn't place a candle under a basket, would you?
i am going to keep this a secret,
for my sake as well as yours.
i prefer being perceived as solitary.

oh, the time we had that night...
consistant noise of vehicles racing past;
the lighting was beyond perfection.
you've torn down my guard,
and i'm not one to let it down so easily.

did the evidence lead to assumption?
fortunately, all were oblivious...
perhaps my false testimony was influential.

i have no business being with you.
i gain nothing... am i satisfied?
its nice to have someone,
but i'm fatigued by alway having to compromise.
but i suppose you're not so bad.
you're wonderful to me.
