you are beautiful but you don't belong to anyone.
all those nights, that bed, that ceiling,
those windows over looking the bay-
were they ever really ours?
we're only given a handful of years
to be this young and selfish.
we can't be wasting them
looking for something real.
we take what we are offered.
like a new drug or lust or ride home when it is cold.
i miss you in october
when the days start to shrink
and the only thing left to do
is sleep until the spring.
