You were always in and out of my life like night and day

until i finally gave you up and you decided America

wasn’t for you so you flew back home living 7 hours

into the future ahead of me.

Sometimes i wonder if you did that just to torture me.

When we were together we were so full of life

it was as if we were the only two existing in the present time.

you have taught me that.

that it is wise to live in the present moment

but after you left I’ve been a foolish girl living in the past and future with your ghosts.

i cant stand at the thought that the sun rises with me

way before it even sets with you

at least if the sun rose here the same time it set over there

it would be like those brief passionate moments that you

were in and out of my life (like night and day)
