my legs feel weird
spark a smoke standing outside
of the door

you think of time
and wonder when the stars died
the cool outside breeze pulls you
lightheaded, the waves
relax you
but your fingers are still numb

fuzzy heads with blurred eyes
big and blue, with the most
intoxicating smile
that led me through a door
which stood at the end of the porch
exhaling

while the rain poured
and the band played
forced nods
I've fallen through the door to the other side
