Here I sit
Feet on the dash
Lemon Oreos and Cheez-its in my lap
I’m 16
And I know everything
And nothing
And something
About everything
Tears of laughter fight against my almost waterproof mascara
Feet on the dash
And eyes ahead on the empty parking spaces
You have an old white car that was your brothers
And a pink license plate
I’ve been at school for 10 hours now
But I’m not yet ready to leave
Because I’m sitting with you in your car
Waiting for my dad to pick me up after practice
And everything makes sense
And the sunset is beautiful
And my heart is beating
And our laughter is ringing down the hill and through the city
And friendship is everlasting
And these moments last years
And Lemon Oreos and Cheez-its are being passed between us
And everything makes sense
