If i could have anything right now i think it would be fifteen year old me. I would shake her and say "dont dont dont lose him"
And more importantly : "don't lose yourself"
[Caught in the jump of a boy's blue pulse
we were fifteen, maybe less,
and our hearts beat hard and fast.
As we passed the coast with the longest grass
your eyes were wide, and mine bright,
still we huddled close and warm.
The crickets sang in their swarms of the heat
and our youth was on our side
when we drank wine all night long.
On the road we played that song more than once,
you said it told our story,
and i smiled all the way home.
Knowing we had the best story to tell.
For once no night spent alone
as the dirt sped under us.
Fireflies and limpets are our memories
now that we are miles apart,
still our hearts beat fast and hard.
A well spent youth of adventure and self,
the liquor store, as you said,
was our favourite guiding light.
Now we breathe the sweet breath of confidence,
surf boards and bikes stowed away,
sand in our nails, love inside]
