I give you my attention
only because I like you.
Smart and clever,
funny and sometimes even bitter.
I text you at random hours, knowing you’ll reply
Knowing that you have a girl, who’s probably there by your side.
Although we’ve never met I think about how different my life could be
if I had just went up to you the day of the fest, I think it was around 3?
I saw you from a far, your tall body and curly black hair
Future Islands had just performed and you might of been waiting by the door.
But I was a coward and walked away
turning every once in a while to glimpse you from the distance
until I didn’t see you no more
just a crowd of stuck up kids
and me alone in the city
just me with my kicks.
