It's been so long that I've almost forgotten
The height gap, the lips, the hair (still thick)
The eyes, the touch, the sincerity (still mean it)
for so long, I've tried to capture it
you, me, us, our unexplainable connection
the thing that never fades, breaks us
the thing that never fades, makes us
break everything we have
take everything we want
and mold it into one day
one passionate, over-whelming, intense
shattering, tear-jerking, heart-breaking
perfect day
But perfect can only last so long
now it's estranged connections
unanswered mail and phone calls
I know you're not mad
but I wish we could talk'¦
it's fear of what we make
fear she'll never find out
fear that it'll happen again
and we won't be able to keep it
'cause we were meant for one day
we were meant for passion,
understanding, first-loves, tragicity
we were meant or some world
where every day is our last
we treat each other like icecream
sweet but cold
afraid to swallow whole
savor it to the last melted drop
and for some reason,
we melt together
not made for each other, or puzzle pieces
we melt together
both entranced at intensity
our eyes ringing out loud
for someone to stop this
stop the insanity of loving you
when it can never be worth it
when how I'm with you,
I'm still alone
because you'll never admit it
