The thing is

The thing is,

I can't get over it.

It sticks in my memory

unforgettable

and I want it

but I know it was just

subconscious dreamland.

It was old

we were all a little older a little more mature

our relationship was thriving in this new deep end

I jumped off the diving board long ago.

The old felt so good.

The good felt so right.

The right felt so real.

And it won't get out of my head.

Even when we weren't sitting together 

I felt in my dream

you'd smile like you meant it so much

I'm n0t saying that's not what we have now but... wow.

Like you had your friends but 

I was the most important.

On my cheek

firm and brief

like 

always.

The memory of how that felt

when I've never felt it

burns in my heart

I want that.

    My band conductor has always said that 6/8 plays itself -

    it does.

    It's easy to just play through but not if you think too much.

    I grew up in 6/8

    my life plays itself

    yes I make mistakes

  • Falling in love

    The first thing I ever understood about falling in love

    is that it keeps you coming back

    like magnets

    whether it's good for you or bad for you

    you're addicted.

    And I didn't know the scope of it -

  • New Year

    New year's resolutions.

    I tell myself a lot of things every year -

    I never listen.

    No boys, no distractions.

    Too late.

    This time is different I think -

    I want that senior solo
