Got Your Back

I sit here with a half-empty glass
Experiencing flashbacks.
And if the phone
Doesn't ring before long
This TV might experience 
A screen smash.

Did I look at you right 
When you were leaving?
Did I give you the signs
You wanted to read?
Did I massage your memories
In all the right places?
Was my smile 
Of grimace or of grace?

Now I sit here with a filled-up glass
Reliving knockbacks
And if the phone 
doesn't ring before long
Well, that's OK, girl -
I guess I've got your back.
