I'll figure it out some day
Hop into that shining black car
sleek as the night's sky, riding off into
the wild; we are young, wild, and free
Don't you remember? How we
almost, just barely, escaped
the sharp claws of beast in those
casinos. or the can-never-go-wrong
plan -- hey, it ended up fine,
you have to admit.
And that one time we almost
got arrested in the market; I SWEAR
we weren't doing anything wrong,
In a small sound-proof room
singing out heart out
to God knows what in our language
in the language we only knew,
after all we ran to the ends
of the earth, hand in hand,
stopping in the middle of the field
dripping with sweat in
our midnight cloak, falling down
on soft cut grass, Lady Luna
watching over us as we laugh at our
silly teenage mistakes.
From hopeless love, meaningless
drama queens, charms in our hearts,
a jar filled with photos of what was,
coffee shop conversations, so on
and so forth washed
away in the sand on the beach.
Because last I saw you was
in that moment, across an empty
hall, in that moment you turned away.
Mind and soul connected
as one; for once, simply drink a
magic potion, turn back time with a
flick of a wand. Go back when
it was safe to say: Everything is
Alright.
