Never grow up.
Every morning when I wake up,
I pour my coffee in my cup.
I slowly crawl back in my bed,
Wishing you’d be there instead,
Daydreaming about your perfect smile,
The teeth held on jury by those braces’ trial,
And the eyes that seem to know all,
Why humans exist to why leaves change in the fall.
Then I remember how far you reside,
How the distance and time between us multiplies,
How every good-bye brings my heart crashing down,
How my every smile morphs into frowns.
You’ve always been my light, the one to change me,
You break the rhythm bring excitement to my life.
You may think that you’ve been terrible lately,
But you’ve just shown me your heart’s bitter strife.
And it’s completely normal, what you’re feeling.
I know it because I feel it every day.
This is life, these are the cards it’s dealing.
The odds may be in our favor, or they might just get in the way.
