rosie and i went to pick strawberries today, and ohmygoodness
Shutting the blinds to rest for the next day
Crying your eyes out because you want to understand but
Only shedding a tear on the inside because you’ve said too much
Looking at your reflection and wanting to see someone special
And hoping you’re enough
Listening to that song on repeat that reminds you of that time
You thought this was the beginning of something
Watching that movie that made you open your eyes to the obvious
And becoming thrilled at the prospect of tomorrow
Get a dress out, make up your face, answer that text
All in hopes that somehow you’re feelings won’t be in vain
Is it too much to hope? Do you dare? It’s too late now,
Yesterday’s curiosity is washed down the drain,
Today’s prospect is now in sight.
You just can’t broach the subject of parting ways,
Even if it’s right around the corner.
