The Boys No Good Man-whore she said She’s probably right But I gave up listening to friends a long time ago He doesn’t even know.. That a glimpse of knee-cap skin Is enough to make me swim For hours on a sea of fantasy. The boy's no good Oh! but I would. Time and time again. But I won’t make a move It could only ever prove To be a bad idea. The dream is enough Cotton clouds of powder-puff Perfection. Without the complication of a real relationship Hopes a mile high And the inevitability of a lie Somewhere down the line. Petra Creffield 2006
