in a romantic fashion, i will experiment with my fear right before his eyes. every smile that is unveiled will be soaked in my nervous charm. then ill say, "is everything alright? theres been some things ive been meaning to let go of tonight." and he will say "everythings just fine, you can put an end to your worrying mind." and then, our lips will collide. the winter sky will then bare witness, to a brand new chapter with torn up pages. i proceed to run my fingers through his hair, sending my unsuspecting body into shock. forget everyone whos jaded. they dont matter and i dont care.
then i would say, "would you like to go inside? and forget the world and rules by which we are to abide?" and he will say "theres nothing i want more", as we step into the room, turn off the lights, and close the door. brash and hopeful that my luck will not perish tonight. to be completely honest, youre not like all the rest.
smiled in a big way, the way a girl like that smiles, when the world is hers, and she held your eyes. out in the breezeway down by the shore, in the lazy summer. she pulled you in, bit your lip, and made you hers. she looked deep into you as you lay together quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer. she combed your hair, kissed your cheek, made you feel better than youd been before. told you bad things, you wish you could change. then she told you, laughing down to her core, so she would not cry as she lay in your lap; and she said "nobody here can live forever, quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer". but youve already lost, when you only had barely enough to hangon. and you held her looser than you would have if you ever could have know, somethings tie your life together, slender threads and things to treasure.. days like that should last and last.
