Let our scars fall in love- Galway Kinnell

Can we go up the hill today
maybe celebrate and call it a holiday
because I'm sick of those clothes and i want to recreate
a vision of you standing in front of me again

I wonder where you are? I thought you were coming back
you said you'd never leave me. I believed.
where were you when the sky fell down?
how'd you miss it? you missed me.

You said you'd never. Never be like that. You criticized.
and we both fantasized.
About a time when things would be different.
We'd be one and the streets would glow.

You missed me. Because in the end i realized. Turned out.
That I only fantasized that you criticized.
They say talk is cheap. I don't care what they say.
but they're right. talk.. mere vibrations that evaporate with distance.

You're gone. But I think you should get lost.
I broke my promises. for you.
Hands down. It was my fault. Your too proud for love.
Pride? you rid me of it. Kept it all yours.
So this is for you. I guess that I'm done with you.
Lets go down the hill tonight. I was never really high.
