Dreaming
It’s like when you wait so long
For that one person
Look to the skies arms uplifted
You stare through the seats
You watch their fingers tap
Wishing you hair was flat
Dreaming to have desired skin...
Pretend that you haven’t wanted it,
For so long
It will be better that way.
As I pry you away, the look keeps fading.
Hold your breath it only lasts a moment
Take a bite of my apple, and look into my shirt
This is what we've all wanted
That’s why it must hurt
Feel the rain fall from the leaves
Taste the sky
It’s a treat
Pretend that you haven’t wanted it
For so long, it will be better that way
As I pry you away, the look keeps fading.
Hold your breath now it only lasts a moment
The leaves they change their colors
You feel them crunch beneath your feet, this pulls you into the river
There you swim, away, forever.
