Nope.

I am clueless how we got here
Did we dodge all the bullets or am I dead?
Could I be crazy? - I fear
I could be hallucinating, I could be misled.
Did I not lose you in that maze?
Where we played hide and seek.
I remember your face as you slowly faded out in the haze.
And then it was all gone in smoke, in tears, all black and bleak.

So no, it cannot be,
Not after all that we went through,
I could not have been so lucky,
To have made it back to you.
Listen, Just Pinch me, Punch me, make me feel,
Till this pretty face hurts, and swells, and bleeds too.
So I can touch you and have you and know that it’s real
And maybe, I still won’t believe I found you.

Nope.

Remember?

Remember how your face lit up
As we lay down looking at the sky
Like a million sparkles
Bubbling and glittering in your eye
I saw my reflection in each one of them
As you held my hand tight
You know it too - it was you and me
It wasn't just the fireworks that night.

Beginning of an end.

How do I begin
When we have reached the end
The part of me that was you
Its lying somewhere shattered
Into little pieces
Of our laughter
Of our tears
Of our  madness
Of our fears
So scattered
That they cannot be one again
This is our reality
A battered you, and a battered me
Trying hard to forget
Trying harder to remember
What it was like
When we began.

Fall

Scatterbrained,
Rather drained,
End game, unfeigned.

I let go of it all,
I hear you call,
You were right there, to break my fall.

Dew



If I could, I would take your scent,
with me, to everywhere I went.
Revel in it, Dwell in it,
Till it hits me dizzy,
Till the world drowns out in a fuzzy,
Into a town blanketed with crystal morning dew,
Where I can romance with the idea of you.
