You tag telegraph poles with black love hearts that mark the path to her house. When you bought the spraypaint you knew they would think you?re too old to use them for graffiti. You still felt nervous anyway. You tag telegraph poles with black love hearts. You?re too old for graffiti. Black love hearts. One every block on the path to her door. You?re too old for graffiti. You?re too old for love. She?ll probably never notice anyway.
