i and you


i miss you
dear so beautiful
the face
the epitome of flaw
but no less perfect
no less candy to the eye
and to the heart
from inside
i feel so hollow
when i see myself
through the eyes of someone else
the eyes of youth
taken for granted
all the time we took to lip-lock and plunder
one another from necessity
to wonder you and i
never again
as you and i
different and the same two perfect people
children in the arms of youth
where everyone dies when they’re younger
fall in my lip-lock and plunder
what is yours
take back the wonders
a goodbye is the beginning
a goodbye to the initials on the tree
which are no one
but two of us together
in the past in love forever
smiley’s shining to you
here-go-lucky charm of you
smile and fake it
turn and forget
so you and me come running
to these arms
embraced so tightly
that the knots in my stomach
tie a rope around my lover
and down we go
and dare we steal a lip or two
from one another
