Neither had time to
meet each other.

When they finally agreed
to meet, time did not agree
to be a witness.

South by Southwest
Walking hand in hand
Long wet kisses in the night
Laughing over nonsense
Reading love letters by candlelight

Breathing in the salty ocean air
Walking through the pastures
with wild flowers
everywhere

Holding the love that holds yours back
Making future plans
without a future
Sort of like the life
of the trapeze *******

Back and forth
until one day you fall

lost cause
if i wrote my future
all would be changed
from the way i was raised
to the thoughts in my brain
if i wrote my future
no love would be lost
so i’d stand right beside you
no matter the cost
if i wrote my future
i’d bring nothing but peace
and save you from sorrow
and the darkness that creeps
if i wrote my future
you’d still be here
but you wrote my future
and i did nothing
but stare

it has always been
a challenge to let others in.

i'm afraid to admit
that i'm the real sin.

you
Im good at feigning,
that's why I smile whenever you're asking.

Truer words were never spoken,
that is why you don't know I was hurting.

I mentioned how my butterflies fly for this guy,
that's why I don't mind you double crossing.
