now her

I wanted to be yours,

I wanted to feel you close. 

I didn't just want to be friends,

I wanted to be wrapped up in your clothes. 

 

Now that I am yours, 

I wish you weren't so far away. 

Now that we are no longer friends,

I wish that I could actually hear your heys. 

 

I don't usually second guess myself,

But I have been, even though I don't want to. 

I see you in some of my futures,

And I have this burning passion for you. 

 

But the other part of me knows

That this will end like the last. 

It will break into pieces, 

But I don't think these feelings will pass. 

 

I still wish I could see you in the hall,

And not just in my dreams. 

I would give up everything

Just to hold you—by any means. 

 

It's not you who's asking to meet 

Spontaneously, behind closed doors. 

It's her, and I don't think I can take it

Because it's not her—not anymore.

 

It's you. 

Every single day,

I want you. 

 

I want to see you smile,

I want to feel your laugh next to me. 

And I would run forever to see you,

Just to waste all our time, my love,

And chase cars in the constellations above.

    We run back to your house,

    The lights are still on,

    And they cover your freckled face,

    Like it's the sun.

     

    The grass brushes our feet,

    And the wind catches in your hair,

    We sit out on the sand,

    The fog covers the sky,

    And blankets the world,

    Like a shield. 

     

    The waves nip at our feet,

    The water's cold

    But I'm warm because you hold my hand,

    We stand on the dock,

    The sun has set,

    But I can see your happiness 

    Even in the dead of night.

     

    The streetlight's on,

    The metal is all rusted

    And covered in salt,
