Those Nights

Standard

Those nights I snuck in.

We would be

Oh

So quiet.

And in the morning your dad would knock on your door,

Peeking in to wish you a good day.

You would lie on your side

So i could cuddle up

Oh

So close

(My heart beating so fast)

And melt

Myself into the blankets and mattress.

Into you,

So as not to be seen.

When we heard the front door shut and the car pull out of

The driveway

You would turn and grin

And begin again.

I remember the morning light

And your body

So warm.

Your strong hands

And thick hair.

I remember your

Lips and how you kissed me

Like

There was nothing but each moment

Together.

So young.

So simple the desires.

Body to body.

Heart to heart.

Eager and overflowing with

Something we could not explain.

I wonder

What do you remember?

Sneak Out

Standard

Let’s sneak out after midnight.

Meet me down the road.

We’ll go running through the field.

Nobody will know.

Bring your father’s bourbon

And a radio too.

We’ll listen to some music.

Maybe dance a song or two.

I’ll bring us a blanket

And wear my yellow dress.

The one I wore last summer.

The one you like best.

We’ll lay down with each other.

Not breathe a single word.

Because we know what our hearts are saying.

Nothing that can be heard.

We’ll count the stars to a million.

We’ll laugh until we cry.

We’ll hold each others hands.

Watch the lightening bugs make fire in the

Sky.

And I can’t wait to see you.

Can’t wait to breathe you in.

Can’t wait to see your laughing eyes

And do it all again.
