How Could You

because I was feeling a little inspired

How could you

First of all you let me leave

I escaped that planet for some new

Nitrous oxide covered life

I find my head lulling back these days

Swaying only on the drugs of early morning hours

 

You let me fall for you

It’s your fault that I can’t seem to separate

Your eyes from the waters of that ocean

Where the sand was too grainy for my feet

And I found a sea shell

For the first time in my life

 

                                I live next to those seaside lovers eyes

 

I feel like I wasted my time

And the summer is nothing but some far away

Never land

That never even happened

It’s hard for me think

 

                How did you and I

Even

                                Kiss

 

How dare you let me follow my desires

Why do I have this terrible habit

Of loving from other galaxies

I’m born and raised in the milky way

Stop letting me fall in love with Polaris

                And it’s orbiting solar systems

 

 

F**k I guess it’s true what they say

                                - I miss you

Do you miss me too?

Because I’m homesick for places that don’t

                Exist

And I’m trapped among sky scrapers

And sidewalk that sparkles

 

Instead of those leafy summer shade trees

We spent our time lounging under

And the heat in the top floor of my house

Or the summer thunderstorm

We shared a rainy kiss underneath

 

Did you decide I was a waste of time?

Like I decided Midnight and I could never touch

And you will never be in love with this

                Sky girl

Because the ocean and the sky well never

                Ever

Touch   

 

                                I wish it never would have

                Ended

 

Though you still make me smile

                How

                       Could

                                You

Nicely written. Love that hurts, and the galaxies fall apart.
