Do you remember when we used to fly
And we never thought that we would die
Before we fell from the sky
Do you remember you and I
Above the clouds we climbed and dipped
Never worrying that we would slip
Together we glided towards calm shores
Do you remember when I was yours

I just want you to know,
though we aren't very close,
I wish you didn't have to go

Your choices are amusing
Going every which-way
Certain you're refusing
A life of "everyday"

Explain a tight budget
And future student loans
Continue to spend hundreds
On ink and Patrón

Ruin relation with me
And your "handle" on addiction
Reunite with nicotine,
Whiskey and restriction

Encounter a crisis at twenty
Isolate yourself
No, you're not hiding
Resuscitate your hell

Consciousness is chasing your dreams,

I watch the game
With amusement but sadness and pity too
Because they both love each other
But neither can commit
To the potential heartbreak
That could ensue from honesty
So they stay
And poke little references
Or clues or leads
But weak ones
That slip out sideways and seep
Into the floor before
They can be collected
Half hearted efforts
For an achingly full hearted two
Hesitation
Restraint
Fear
