A million drops of water fall outside my window
it's a summer rain
our skin sticks together but we keep each other close anyway
a million leaves fall when the trees go brown
it's autumn and I realise why it's called fall
socks slide across the tiles in my kitchen
we don't have any heat in the house except the heat from the clothes dryer
we sit by it almost every night so our hands don't get too sore
we spend the first warm day in a while
lying in the sun in my backyard in warm comfortable silence
our mouths filled with cotton wool; thats words we've never said
until the mornings are earlier and the nights are later again
we're together
the world keeps changing around us
I couldn't count the amount of quiet days we've had
on the hands of  10 of our closest friends
there's too many seasons going by
for us to have time to say what we're thinking
too many to say what the under current says
it's throbbing around us
with words we'll never say
but words that we didn't need to say
because we've told each other a million times
in everything but words
