Plasters

The garden path
Where we both sat
With your bloody knee
For the whole world to see

As crows flocked ahead
I could swear you were almost dead
Your mum came running out
While mine just stood in doubt

And years from now
I can still see your face and you're wondering how
I never proved you wrong
I was never that good at playing along

You wore that cast for weeks
Now it's off and it sits on your shelf like antiques
I never signed my name
I couldn't bear the shame

We haven't spoken since
Even though I'm still pretty convinced
It was just a sprain
Not like you fell out of an airplane
