quiet sounds

she
tasted
like
watermelon on a hot july day
i
let
her
drip down my face
we
acted
like
we had no cares in the world
i
placed
my
face in places that she didnt even know existed her screams disrupted my flow i tried to take it slow but she got so excited and that i couldnt stop and just before she came
i
asked
her
if she was ok
she
tried
to
say i love you
we
moved
as
close as we could
i
placed
my
tongue against her heartbeat i could feel her moving as her legs trembled her thighs began to tense up her toes started to curl her hands grabbed my back and then she said
i
i
i
i
am
about
to

baby
wait
stop

i
cant
take
it
anymore

oh
my
god

yeah
she tasted like watermelon
on a hot july day

not as pleasant

she said with me
she couldnt grow
our situation stood still
like the hands on a broken clock
i blocked her sunshine
like a dying shade tree
and made her stand in my shadow
until her soul to become cold
she said with me
she couldnt love him
not like he needed to be loved
so
our situation stood still
until the sound of her voice
pierced my heart like an old dagger
and somehow i knew
that
she never loved me
just the way i made her feel
when her heart was heavy
and
i never loved her
just the was she made me strong
when my soul was weak
and we were never in love
just
a safe place for our hearts to hide
until we were ready to love again
we lied as if we could still be friends
even though
we had never been friends in the past
only two souls
searching for a rest haven
for our own
broken hearts

live from 285

sitting in traffic
forced to inhale truck exhaust
i
thought i saw you pass my way
i
began to wonder
where you were
and what you were doing
my mind
played memories
like old movies reels
i
wondered if
you ever thought about me
i wondered if
you ever thought about us
i played the first time we touched
until my mind started to bend reality
i
looked at every car as if it was yours
i
wondered if
you knew how much
my heart cried tears
the day our souls drove away
i
closed my eyes
and
listened for your hello
i listened for your touch
i listened for your smile
and
while sitting in traffic
forced to inhale truck exhaust
i smiled
because i love you
i cried
because i miss you
i lived
because
of you
