Untitled ~ Oct. 07, 2020
Cheyenne Seaman 2003 (Philadelphia)
It was the fourteenth of that April,
Saw you running to the road’s end.
You only gave your first name
And I was in over my head.
Boy, I tried to guess at your last name.
For two years, man, I tried so hard.
Once, I swore never again to love,
But now I’m caught in the midst of a chess game.
When my heart yells its roll call,
You’re the first name on the list.
