Lovelines(s) (find me in this, and in you) you tore it up and sprinkled it carelessly, with a gentle hand barely knowing you’d even held this paper ball. My heart. How can I blame you for loving them with the brightest eyes and the smiles of youth? How can it be your fault that you’re amazing? So I travel the sidelines wondering what it could be to hold that space you hide so well. Where you’re crying out beneath those eyes, lost in your life, under all of these dreams Between prom-night photos tacked to a wall and a smile when your past walks into a bar - throws you a word you after two years at college, forgetting he’d cared till now. Between feather-pillow girl-talk and movie posters, And the jokes about last Friday night There’s a bump in the road to remind you you’re home Or that you never left your front door. Between the careful lines of a cartoon drawing The walks and talks when you were down In the stars where you were, and where you looked to For company, and a face smiling back There’s a space left behind that you’d never dare tell the silence in your living room when you’ve no more friends to call. When you door is fastened shut. You’ll let me in. A friend who’d give comfort, the world if he only could The moon and stars if he could reach, I promise you. I would. |
