The lights are out and the scene is over. I am trying to wash you off my skin and out of my mind. Your smell lingers and it is lodged into my memory. Can you forgive me for letting you go? You left your mark on my heart along with a million other scars. I need you now and I need you forever. Can't you see this roller coaster of emotions and notions and crazy ideas has me floatin' and rollin' and wishing you were here. It gets me so high, as high as the moon, that to this day reminds me of you. Every star has a memory attached and when one dies out I try and catch it and keep it for I am afraid to let go. One memory lost is a piece of you that slipped through my fingers as I stumble to cease it from falling and calling out "please don't go!"
