It was right then
in the summer
when I saw your pretty smile again
I leaped
and I cried
and I smiled
inside
at the sight of you
because you never knew
the things you did that made me want to hold you
too close
to me and I could never really understand
the way your eyes dissected me
and saw me from the inside.

Music was there
and we danced
and you kissed me on the cheek
and I felt better
'cuz I couldn't quite remember how you did that until then...

And it progressed through this mess
of 'is it really what it's meant to be?'
So far away-
you far away from me,
such blasphemy.
We gave it all we could and it was too much...

Then it began
it was like tripping on that
same damn crack
again.
You grabbed my hand
and I felt better...

It felt like someone looped the film
and I was lying on the couch again with you
and watching movies like we used to,
or sitting doing nothing on a couch that wasn't ours
and thinking nothing
being nothing
but just being there

-hands on eachother's waists
fingers running through your hair-


that was the moment
the instant
the second
the flash...

I understood my walls were getting thin...



and you were breaking in.
