Friends, and Just a Little More

I was falling,
Fast, but in slow motion,
Realizng everything I was missing.
And they were busy.
So they didn't think to say hi,
And so I fell faster.
And then suddenly,
at the very end,
The last person I ever thought would come.
Gave me a virtual hand.
Picked me up,
And told me that he was there for me.
We safely landed,
Nothing shattered.
And then he said something,
That made me let go of his hand,
For just long enough to fall again,
But once again,
He caught me.
And for a fleeting second,
I thought we could go back.
Back to what it used to be,
I didn't even know if I wanted that,
But he didn't.
But here he is,
Still here for me,
Teasing and a little bit flirty,
Because that can't be helped.
And me knowing,
All the while,
That we will never go back,
But we'll never be just friends either,
I think we will always be,
Friends,
And just a little more.

    Pebble

    I want to build you a castle, even though I can barely use a screw driver.
    I want to write you a song, one that would make you think of me on a whole new level,
    One you could listen to when we're apart.

    Promise, Someday

    Someday.
    Someday we will hug and kiss like its no big deal,
    Wrap our arms around each other and walk down the street.
    Someday I’ll have a special name, that only you call me,
    Something that makes me smile,

    Always something

    It's always got to be something.
    That one thing that takes the wind out from under your wings making you tremble,
    and fall.
    And it's always the something you generally expect,
    But hoped wouldn't happen.
