lonelyraccoon

under a different moon

The first kiss hurt

Because that\'s when I knew you would never fall for me

the way I did for you

I wish I was oblivious to the little things

like you were

The way your fingers never found their way under the hem of my shirt

I would have let you seen my world under this blend of polyester

if it weren\'t so flawed and scarred,

maybe you would have loved me

And the way you lit my cigarettes

and your eyes poured into my drug enhanced pupils

just begging for you to take a swim in them

so I can forget about my responsibilities for the night

You never dried my tears, or held my hand, or made sure I got home safe

Yet when I light my own cigarettes, seeking comfort I am missing you

Tonight we will be dancing under the moon

as an to this one sided sad excuse of a romance

So be damned the consequences of broken dreams, hearts, and curfews

Under a different moon I hope I am lying with my very own world\'s greatest lover
