I knew why you wore the rings
instead of just answering them
somewhere between the first
and the 4th before voice mail

and I could feel your sorting too
of those excuses in that pretty box
reasons why almost was good enough
to keep your dress mostly clean

although you admitted your mind
into the sandbox of dirty soil
and let it get rolled around often
til you even lost it on occasion

as if your toy was inside backwards
and anything else would ruin you
and just make you want to play always
even when you needed to be serious

for the heart side of your happiness

Oh I don't know, there's something lovely and secretish about having someone's voice in a voice mail.  To listen to whenever one wants.  And if it's yours, well... lol you'd have to be deaf not to want to hear that.     

I think it's sad that wanting to play all the time is synonymous with ruin, with some.  I would love to not need, or feel compelled, to be serious and in control.  I think it would be liberating.
