My lady, your wistful wishes are drifting
afloat amongst the fall trees leaving
chords so quickly strummed, playing loudly
crooning crazily among flavored sunshine
It is all that we do when we're allowed
claim ourselves, push past these savory drinks
flowers stemmed, delivered, and leasing space
lying across and over bad blue kitchen counters
Clear mugs, brimming coffee, talk out in the open
some milk, some black, drunk caffiene morning
seems too often to lead to bittersweet emotion
laid out on a messy table, optional background music
Photos laughing on the mantle, holding hands
on random walls, awkward love smile, just silliness.
All missing, never put on display, empty mantle
too much prevented such simple affection, unreceived
Cold days poured into a hot summer, stirred hastily
unpredictable outcomes, messy wind laughing hair
nothing could have slowed us down, just time
shiny, buried past days, we're there, loving
My mistakes, enough for both of us and more
if we never forget, can we thread fate to us
aimlessly adrift, shining moon we'll chase you
need to run after you, our hearts need
