wedding, mortgage, furniture, jobs -
here's how the numbers look now, in four years, in 40
I've never seen two more cordial, less passionate people on the brink
of merging their lives together
they agree and agree and agree
reassuring each other of the sense in it
checking the figures
he shows her how it all lines up on paper
kids out of school, starting grade one in the school of life
it'll be years before they decide
whether to begin a real friendship
