it's 3am and i'm still thinking of you
and you're probably asleep
but my heart woke me up hours ago
and there's no snooze or reset button
but i can't stop thinking about all the nights spent with you
and the many ways you made me feel even when you weren't around
all the feelings of may are still stuck with me
like the way my ears will always still recognize your laugh and my
hands will always remember the feel of your's
i always liked the way your hands felt holding mine
sometimes i feel like i can live in those moments forever
and spend my time in a ten month old dream
that my heart isn't the only one living in the past
that it's december and that i'm not alone in my room at 3am
that love has only hit the snooze button and o only have 9 minutes
left of this dream
i always liked myself more when i was with you
but sooner or later i have to wake up
it's still just february, and it's now 4am and i'm crying
and you're still asleep
and i liked the idea of love a lot more when i was with you
but my heart woke me up hours ago
and i wonder sometimes if your's does the same
even if it feels like mine's the only one that does
because i feel like that's what two hearts in love would do

Your last line.
ReplyDeleteAnd the idea that love hit the snooze. Different. Good.
This is so sad and so beautiful. To quote Jess Rhodes, never date a boy that makes you write good poetry
