You and I

Carefully push up the pain

Shh!  We laugh,

Carefully, quietly, get out fast.

You took my hand and ran

With me, hearts racing

We know its wrong

Around the block,

Cookie-cutter houses fly by

You and I

Escaping it all.  

Fiery disappointment

cuts through silence - 

It was too good

To be true,

Too real to exist

In my waking nightmare.
