later
somewhere down south
-
heri was exhausted.
i don't quite know
if i knew this yet,
but i was.
sitting on that couch
in a living room
that i wish i didn't know
so damn well.
thinking about
staring into those
dark hazel eyes
feeling the last summer
flooding into my mind.
long nights spent
staring at the stars in the sky
and laughing at bad jokes
and reciting bad poetry we
somehow wrote.
it's a place i can't let go of.
somewhere far away
but close to home at the
same exact time.
you're far away now,
but not too long and i'll
see you again.
i know it's not the end
for us.
