Tell me love
Since we frolicked in the well
Of the summer time spring
We lit our eyeballs up like
They were the lightning bugs
I used to catch in the palms
Of my sweaty hands.

Your pupils were like flying saucers
Surrounded by a teal blue glass
I'll never forget how I felt
Snapping photos
Of my magical distant face
Sitting up against the bark of a tree
Wondering if you were into me.

Its always so weird and hard
When it comes to an end
I remember returning to my bedroom at the time
My necklace dangling over the mirror
I pressed "stop" on my camcorder
And that was it.

On went my life
And into the arms of an older man I went
I don't think I ever saw any of that relationship clearly
No I think I sought out the comfort
And wannabe fancy things
No, I saw none of it clearly.

Remember when we found a crevice of the forest
I filmed everything
We undressed, bugs biting us
Our need for an embrace
You whimpered my name
And looked at me like I was a lion
In a marching band jacket
Because I was.

That girl is different now
I watch your Instagram snaps
And find myself wincing and laughing
At your silly banter
And wonder if you are one of the men
I could have been with.

I'm not sure
But I'm not sure about much
Not when it comes to this
But my God
I've experienced such beauty
Even if
Just for a moment
As the electric forest
Swelled above and below us
And you whimpered my name.
