Table for Two

So uh do we order dessert first or talk about the weather
Shaking hands with paper sheets
Water rings on table stands
I laugh too loud he stares too long
The silence feels like something's wrong

I said once in the park I chased anyone who'd look at me
Didn't care about their name
Didn't care if they were kind
Just bodies in the dark

He said I learned how to lie with a smile
Told my husband I was working late
While I was bent over in a stranger's car
Sometimes three four in a night

I said there were bathhouses where I stayed till dawn
Drunk on sweat on moans echoing through the steam
I thought if I kept moving I'd never have to feel empty

He said I kept numbers in a hidden phone
A hundred men I never called back
Each one just a notch
And every notch cut me deeper than the last

Secrets shared across this wine
Scars and stains but they are mine
No shame no mask just stories true
I'm broken and so are you

But maybe broken fits together

We wore the hunger like second skin
We fell we failed we let it win
But sitting here your eyes on me
The past is past and I'm finally free

Secrets shared became our song
We thought it shame but we were wrong
Each mistake a road we knew
Each confession led me here to you

And then we kissed
