#daysinthepark

Can close my eyes and be there,

feel the April sun heat my smooth skin,

your gently strong hands in my hair,

so far behind us, our chances seem slim,

you know where we've been,

fearlessly touching each other,

not caring who had seen,

didn't matter. We had one another. 

Those moments are blurry to me,

it's an endless, brightly lit dream,

everything fades, you're all I can see,

when reality pulls me out I could scream,

you said you'd never let me leave,

now like a clingy annoying child,

I'm forever tugging at your sleeve,

begging you let us always be this wild.

You used to curl your bottom lip,

looking out through watered wide eyes,

thought we'd never let it slip,

I can still see your pretend cries,

we played with each other's truth,

but you were always in my mind,

there's no such thing as showing proof,
