august makes it all go away

i don't drink but i wrote this for a story i wrote and i thought since i haven't posted in a while i can get away with this :)

Drunken laughter on the shores of Rhode Island
Walking miles in low tide
The moon was a glistening reflection
You took your hand in mine
Our fingers intertwined
So then it spawned a moment of drunken bliss

If you’d only remember the night before
We’d put every summer night to shame
Red cup attached to your lip as I was attached to your hip
Wake up and do it again
Every day perfectly repeating as the end approaches soon

August makes it all go away

Under my skin

You are under my skin
You flow with my blood
You flow to the heart that which you have stolen
You are the form of my being
At night I wonder if you think of me too
Laying awake smiling because you make my day
I guess there's never any rest when you're at mind
When we don't talk it seems like time is just empty spaces until words are exchanged
I never let go of the happiness you've brought me
Because I never want to feel pain ever again
We're like two puzzle pieces that have not connected yet
When I think of you I wonder how your hand will fit with mine
That we're so close there is only skin holding us
I know that you are completely and utterly under my skin

liberate today

I was sitting in a bird cage and I never seemed able to stretch my wings
It's a thing of shame when you're put on display for vanity
You swallowed the keys, and I was locked up for good
But I'm liberating today and shaking the loose feathers
You can't hold me in
