"we can't stay here” i am the shoulder on the highway i am the roof of your car i am the full moon who tries to lie to you (these colors will last forever) (this melting starless sky will never change) the night air stumbles and slurs, "i love you too, sarah" i am climbing back in through the window i am the blanket pulled tighter around your shoulders i am your hot coffee from this morning, just colder come back                tomorrow?   i'll                                                 be warmer,                                                                     and you'll want me again.

receding light, "we have to get down" i am asleep on a friends couch i am running my fingers through my bed-head tangled hair i am the word, “coffee?” the floating sound of taylor’s new album the reflections of myself as he curls up in the backseat to read knees to his chest in his own little world i am the sunlight and the wind intersecting across the tangle of blue peaks where wild blueberries ripen in July where you lift glass to your lips and i stare at my hands,
