Caitlin: goodnight kiss by Andrew S Adamsyour presence confuses
what i have in mind
i want to say this
but have no words to find
if you could just be there
sitting in silence
right next to me
stuck in that moment
how could i leave
you to be on
the seat right there
right next to mine
i couldnt move and
i couldnt breathe and
i couldnt let myself
do anything
and you astound me
you confound me
you just can be
all i cant be
and it feels so hollow
to have had you so close
and to not let you know
exactly how i felt
and all i could muster
was one goodbye kiss
soon thereafter
i wonder if you feel like this
sit in the splendor
of my own shy life
and let dashboard
just sing me goodnight.
how i wish it was you. 11/30/2002 Posted on 12/01/2002 Copyright © 2024 Andrew S Adams

Posted by Matt Forget on 07/29/03 at 12:15 AM It sounds like instant loneliness after you leave someone or that feeling you get when you do leave and go home and it's a sudden "I miss them already" kinda feeling...it's so strong and descriptive...I definitely felt that one. Great work! |
