When it comes down to it
When it really, really comes down to it
It’s always
Be safe
Be careful
Be sure to let us know
This is not a bad thing
It is just how it is
It is just how it always is
The way intimacy exists only
In her head
In her own company
That’s just how it is
This is not a bad thing
It’s just how things are
Some people have a tough time
It’s just how it is
It’s just
Different
And not easily brought to words
In those fantasies
No one has a face
Nothing is rooted in reality
It is all just too embarrassing
Yet
Something of a relief
Just a twister of genetics and nutrition
And a value system
And maybe one or two other things
It’s just how it is
And anyway, there’s always trees
There’s always light reflecting from somewhere
Dancing around on the wall
And even there when you’re not looking
It’s just how it is
