from the top of that hill
dirty feet
evening sun melting on my back
all dressed up
a drink in hand
i took a moment,
to breathe in

the grass between my toes
dry, tickling grass
as i ran down that hill
dirty feet
summer heat
i wasn't looking
but still i found

i stumbled down
floated along the road,
a small crowd just ahead
you were there
and suddenly so was i

voices and words
misting together in the air
time meant nothing
empty drink in hand
you were all
and everything

and then, gone
miles and miles apart
words still whispering
tickling inside my head
body aching
constantly thinking
of when i'd see you again

lips
hands
completely lost
you were there
miles and miles from home
but you were there
here, next to me

meeting
seeing you
wanting you
from the top of that hill
dirty feet
everything changed
in just a breath
i was yours

*not dark again i know.

as long as we laugh out loud, laugh like we're mad. because this crazy, mixed up beauty is all that we have.
