"Don't leave that way!"
God I'm an idiot.
I practically begged her
not to go out that door
with John
and leave us there
by ourselves.

God
if you only knew
how much I really wanted
to be alone with you.
Talk to you face to face
alone
for just one
god damn minute.

But no
I let my insecurities
my unsure-ities
get in the way.

Would I have been able
to look in your eyes
and know for sure
that this time

we're
alone?
