We were just like a handful of stars scattered upon an early summer sky. Droplets, of golden dust. Your scars... And since I didn't know better, I fell. Right when you broke in my arms, and sighed like a child. Our matching scars… Can you understand? I just wanted to be the nurse to fix you. And if I knew, you were going to last for a moment only like dust, I would've held on tighter. Us, nomads of the sunshine, never grown children of the past.

Dust
We were just like a handful of stars scattered upon an early summer sky. Droplets, of golden dust. Your scars... And since I didn't know better, I fell. Right when you broke in my arms, and sighed like a child. Our matching scars… Can you understand? I just wanted to be the nurse to fix you. And if I knew, you were going to last for a moment only like dust, I would've held on tighter. Us, nomads of the sunshine, never grown children of the past.
