the rift took you away from me
the same stone dragged us underwater
all those years it made us think
that we were so different
then spring melted the ice beneath our feet
and we drifted once again
this time back into each other's arms
then i got out of my car and saw you
standing in the doorway of that coffee shop
it was really you, it's always been you
three years fell away in only an instant
you still smelled like board games and lemonade
and flannel jackets and poetry
i didn't realize i'd been holding my breath until then
