lodged

i stayed up here alone
for a price undisclosed
and i didn’t take notice
of the clearing in your throat
you waited for an answer
and i had no reply
for i’m simply a woman
and i ask you supply
the means that i need
to make you most happy
and i’ll take on each task
and work so savvy
i’m not suggesting that we stay
where we are
i just know that with talent
both souls can fly
so together we stand
as mortals on dirt
and pray to God
that we always know our entire worth
and we hold hands as we sit
and 1 handed we text friends
and expand our contacts
and make our amends
never alone, we are
even in a room by ourselves
because we found God together
and it was just below our belts
