wait, its a metaphor right? (putting things off until tomorrow.) hey, lee!

nothing flatters more than pedestals. pictures lie. she's tall. its springtime and im in a good mood so i take a chance but as always when it happens she has to make the first move. im taller, and when i realized that i couldnt stop laughing. when i realized that, i couldnt stop smiling. oh god and then you sent an angel and shined a light on her in the middle of it all. open eyes and lips both full and full of thoughts spilling from the place where brain and heart hold hands. i couldnt stop talking, and you looked at me with the quiet amusement of not seeing me since the last time, this case being two years not counting halloween (you in a hurry, me on hallucinogens), we were invisible.

do you remember when we were in the middle of everything i stopped and said i should have five minutes ago? and then you put your finger to my lips right there in the middle of everyone, and told me it was perfect. just you and me bathing in the sea. dark hair that smells like right after it rains, and when we hug my chin touches your lips all flat footed. stuck in eyes laughing with and at life and love and me; i wonder how it was i was able to know you all this time without noticing.
