Fate’s a funny thing.
I guess.

A GIRL NAMED OCTOBER
I couldn’t help fall
for a girl named October
her eyes like the sky
when the day’s almost over
her voice like a song
you almost remember
from some other life
some other forever
Why did I lie
why did I say — I didn’t love her
I knew just what that meant
I knew right there and then
that it was over…
ten thousand times
I thought that I might see her
a million nights I lay awake
and remembered
ten billion stars
go on forever
not one chance
we could stay together
Why did I lie
why did I say — I didn’t love her
I knew just what that meant
I knew right there and then
that it was over…
