va-va-vanilla

by Emily G Myers

Could there be anything to it?
'I love you still' is interjected somewhere
Just a crazy little girl missing her pot
When everything is insane and overworked
Could we?
Knew we
Should be...
But it's too late, baby. Now, it's too late
Someone we call her who looks plain
'Too much' I hear screamed into the dark
I never wrote love for anyone but me
And I always cast myself in the lead role
You're something of a co-star
Nothing like the va-va-vanilla lip gloss
That I just can't live without
And I'm here wishing for one more dance
(With Tom Petty or Mary Jane)
I can't believe how I used to care
And I worried about what you thought
Uhh... not anymore
I've got Les Paul to keep me company
And 'All Along the Watchtower' playing on the radio
