But I don't have class with everyone here.

I was near you TodayI was near you today, if only for a moment. / And today I felt the wrinkles of worn fingers slide slowly across my heart / as a chest swelled faster than the lake we sit by while the rain pours down.

One day I will have a HomeOne day I will have a home / with a wrap-around porch for wrap-around arms and wrap-around lips / squeezing slightly and whispering words so sweet like flower petals
