jokes on you

Every single moment, 

We've been together. 

Even when we are mad, 

We stick with each other. 

That's how it's always been. 

 

But you're gone, 

And we can no longer be together. 

I thought we would spend our whole lives, 

Playing pranks, having fun. 

But now, you're just gone. 

 

There will be no more jokes, 

No more fireworks or fake snow. 

It'll just be me, 

Lost in the misery. 

And the shadows that will overtake me. 

 

I thought maybe it was you

Playing one last grand trick. 

It wasn't, and now you've long left.  

But jokes on you, 

Maybe I'll leave too.

    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,

  • observation i

    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,
