under these street lights,
you drove me home
in the snow
and when we got out
we led in the road
in 2013,
we were nineteen,
in 2013,
i felt alive

Roadtrips

the bedroom i first kissed you in
is no longer mine
and the stars i walked you home under
have faded from sight
and you sold your car,
from the roadtrips that we shared
and you put all of your keepsakes
into storage
(all i want are those roadtrips in your car
where it felt like what we had
was always going to last)
i guess that i learnt
i'll always miss those days
what they came to reprsent
how they resonate
but as people we've grown up
and as people we've changed,
theres nothing left to hold
these moments in place
memories will fade out
just like our stars,
i can never relive,
the roadtrips in your car
where we sang from our hearts
to the songs that we played
naively believing,
we will always be this way
somethings had to change
we couldn't stay the same

i've been wilting like a flower
on my sleepless nights,
under markings of hollow stars
on my ceilings sky
i've spent the last two years
calling out your name,
until my throat wore thin
and the syllables did the same
i've been howling at lampshade,
as if it was the moon,
just hoping to god that i hear from you
i never said i love you
cause i was scared of how you'd act
so i mapped it like a constellation
on the freckles of your back
on a night in your dorm room
where we didn't have to speak
where we just found comfort in
eachothers company
i took down every reminder,
every photograph

i wish we were still friends,
i wish we could still speak,
on the phone every night
before we would sleep
some people grow apart,
other people change
with half a country between us
we couldn't stay the same
but can we still
smile like the best of friends
whenever if,
we see eachother again
i hope you're doing well,
i want you to take care,
please just know that,
i will always be there
how do you break the connotations between
the things you love and those you've lost?

Something to Someone
03:35
|

|
the bags under my eyes have
become a perminant fixing
just like the day to day longing of
what should have been
but if time heals all then,
i guess i'm doing fine
putting pressure on my exit wounds
to keep you from mind
and i'm finally doing okay,
i promise that
clearing out old keepsakes
that held fleeting moments in place
photographs of summer roadtrips
and dorm room days
i guess i always thought
we would reconcile as friends
but sustained absense become something
i had to accept
and i'll find closure
in anything i can
in hopes that someday
i'll feel myself again
