i'm here again,
because you showed up in my dreams.
i thought i was over you, but when
i saw you standing on the other side of
the ocean, looking at me like that,
the waves roared with my thoughts.
because i thought i was over you,
but i really wasn't.
you were always in the back of
my head, silently hoping and wishing
you'd be right there when i turn
around the corner. and—and maybe
we could start over, you know?
maybe the reason you stopped
going here is because of me.
(were you afraid of us?)
