In the rain

You step out of your car and onto the pavement
Gray shirt, old sneakers, and a look of intrigue on your face
It's like you haven't looked at me in years
And now you are just realizing you know me

We walk through misty grass, under dripping trees
And a duck crosses in front of us, followed by another
You sit down on the swing, and motion for me to do the same
And together we fly

The wind in my hair, the sky in my eyes
Next to you everything is perfect
And i forgot what it felt like to see you out of uniform,
Talking to me like i'm your soulmate, not your customer

There's not much to say, and that's ok
I'm wrapped up in the feeling of being with you
Away from the rest of the world
And for a moment, i have you again,
The way i had you here a long time ago
And it rained that day too
We ran for cover under the bridge
And you kissed me
And nothing was the same after that

And here we are again
Nothing but the wind between us
And it starts to pour
We leap off the swings and start to walk back
Sneakers swooshing
Perfect friday in a parking lot
For ducks, and for people who have no time for each other

I think about how last night
I was going to tell you
That i dont think we're on the same page anymore
I don't know what went wrong
But things aren't quite the same
And i don't feel connected to you anymore
But when you slipped into bed at half past 3
And wanted to hear my thoughts
Something held me back
Like always
And i pretended to be too asleep to hear you
Today those thoughts are still there,
But put on hold by this rain
Which silences me
And one more day goes by where i hold in
The thought that maybe this is at its end

I think maybe you sensed it
And could have even prevented it
If you had found my hand when we walked back to our cars
Or kissed me for longer than a millisecond when we said goodbye
Or anything-ed me....
But you left me standing in the rain
Wondering what is different about this park
Than it was last year
When falling in love with you was so easy
And now falling out of it, is not

I wonder if you think any of these things as you drive away,
Without looking back
Maybe that's just you...
Someone who won't let himself look back,
Even when what's back there is happier
But i get in my car
And lose myself in my music
And slowly come to the realization
That i'll never get that back
And i cant tell if these are tears anymore,
Or just rain.
 
I love your writting, and as time goes by and with the more I read, the more I appreciate it....

i just typed a huge reply, stared at it for 2 seconds, then deleted the entire thing. chrissy your words seem to keep me grounded in the real world, and i want to thank you for that, because sometimes i lose it just a little bit... if you need an ear hun (figuratively speaking) you know how to get a hold of me ok. *huggles* even, or maybe especially, in pain your words and the picture you paint with them are so beautiful they sting...

-love ant
 
I'm just not sure that anything I have to say is as important as what you've already said. Thanks for sharing your rainy day.
 
Umm, WOAH

Very deep, very emotional.
God I love it when you open up like this.

Hope everything falls in place for ya. :)
