SPILLING SECRETS
Cécile told me a lot
About her family
And her life
Before the war, of course
And her life
Now
During the war
I'm glad she's telling me this
It means she trusts me
And I trust her
With my life
And that means
A lot
For a Jew
In times like theseDEATH WISH
I open up about myself
The way Cécile did
About her life
And I can see it in her eyes
The Jew in me
That she can't look past
I don't blame her
I'm practically
Her death wishCOUCH
Sleeping in my little box
Is not fun
At all
So one night,
Cécile let me stay
On the couch
But just one night
Because she puts both of us
In more danger
If I stay in the open
But I got to sleep
With Morsi by my side,
At least
