Holy shit is this okay
Today
I am a girl with absolute carelessness
And a fuck ton of forgetfulness
But
I remember
Oh do i remember
The amber glow of warmth
That struck our hearts
with open obviousness
Hammering in my chest
A drum set and the whip of what could be wind
But feels like wildlife
Naturally, smoothly
The words to describe this escape me
It just feels normal
Like we've just been this married couple
for a bazillion years
We finish each other's god damn sentences the same way we somehow know the next line to each other's work in progress poems
We somehow guess what's on the mind of the other before the topic even floats into our brains
We're fucking floating
We are no longer elapsing time with paperweights strapped to our toes
We are elated.
Criss cross applesauce in the front seat of your car
Caring about literally nothing other then sloppy kisses and sleeping in your arms some night
Silly I know
But sometimes I forget how easy it is to fall in love with you
Because, to restate
A fuck ton of forgetfulness
But
I remember
Oh do I remember
Late night pizza for some damn reason
Outside my house around Christmas season
And I kept my hip wedged in the car door
Don't quite leave
just yet
I see sunshine,
And crows fly.
We are elated.
