We swam together
underneath the moonlight
a jar of moonshine in your blood
and if it had been, maybe
another time
I would have minded
that you turned me down.
It was way too late, anyway
but in my mind
I had tried
to give you one last chance
at trying to win my heart
while my blood pumped
boozy lemonade
to try and sterilize it clean,
and it had forgotten
what you’d been through
and the heartache that it’d seen.
