It's A Metaphor

My ankles are bruised

My knees are swollen

My ass is aching

But I look back to yesterday and wish it would happen all over again

I would take a thousand times the pain I have now
Just to see you look at me like that.
Just to see you smile and laugh with Me like that.

Just to hear you say my name the way you did
To have you hold me in your arms
To let you pull me along with you
To watch your eyes light up as you so easily float past me.

How is it that you do everything with such ease?
Such confidence?
It's like everything just comes naturally to you.

I fall flat on my ass or my face and you simply slide by and I'm on my feet again.

Am I foolish for wishing this?
Probably.

But the pain is worth it if I could just have a little bit more time with you.

Don't leave.

Please don't ever leave my life.
