2010, summertime youth
There’s a
Lustful whim that always bubble within
Showed me a smile through puckered lips, I mustered a distrustful grin
It was just a glance in the middle of a target store
I wish I could bottle the moment and store it for forevermore
Because I thought I saw destiny speckled in the freckles on your face
I want to mimic the way the sun kissed all along your cheeks
As I made my way to pay for my purchase,
I thought about your frame, it was perfect
Those curves had me allured by your perkiness
Your amber hair reminded me of every drop of blood I’ve ever lost
....and how the pain was absolutely worth it
Scrapes and cuts in my grandmother’s backyard
Set to the scent of freshly cut grass
Music orchestrated by harmonizing insects
Come rushing in my mind through the propped window to the past
Could we have been something special in another life?
Only the keepers of time knew
But for a minute you looked so familiar
Like 2010, summertime youth
