It was your name stuck behind my lips
Falling in love before I knew what it was
Head drowning in daydreams of us together
Around you always had a natural buzz

Every fluid intoxicating second
Soaked up like alcohol
Words; drops of wine so sweet
Love, anguish, pain; drank them all

Tears like condensation appeared
In corners of your eyes
Tumbling talking temporarily blurred
Color to your face did rise

Days passed, feelings grew stronger
Lack of communication had me scared
Space between too thick to break through
My mind still enraptured,unprepared

Until filled with different thoughts
Filled with images of someone else's face
I'll sabotage emotions as they form
A world of memories I will eventually replace
Autumn days will fade away but memories will always stay the same
