Little Flashing Man

 

I need you
To help me

Break the day
Into tiny pieces

To wipe it off my face
Replace it

With your kisses
I've got a secret

Sometimes I can't
Handle it on my own

It gets too heavy hold
Thoughts become desperate

And I think of you
And a crosswalk button

I've got to press
Effective who can tell

But you become that
Little flashing man

Leading me
To your bed
