Chapter 1
EPHEMERAL & INTERMINABLE… OH HOW I LONG FOR YOU STILL
January 5, 2015
she wasn’t ready
he wasn’t serious
although now he claims that wasn’t true
oh the complexity of young love
oh the simpleness of lust
and as she sits on this couch now
thinking about every stolen moment
and they all were stolen
every single one
he never belonged to her
she never belonged to him
they couldn’t be together
they couldn’t stay apart
and every time they tried to break apart
they somehow tightened the bond in their hearts
have you ever loved someone so much they made you step outside yourself?
has love every made you selfish to point where you didn’t care if the whole world perished,
you
just
wanted
one
more
night?
she wasn’t leaving
he wasn’t understanding
although he claims this isn’t true
oh the finality of real love
go the futility of lust
she lights a match
she sets the couch on fire
she doesn’t look back as she walks away…
