Sarah (demo)

I ignored your texts how you slept on the couch While I played your song and went back to the house I pulled in the driveway and Ray's in garage Staring me down as shut off the volume Sarah I miss ya so bad Beating my chest in a shower of sun Sarah I wish you were here Sleeping beside me your head soft as glass At the teak table I wrote down the thoughts as they came Fending off messages from friends who I've missed The ice in the coffee had melted to flame Which shocked through my fingers and birthed steel toed mist Sarah I long for your voice Waterfall trash heap piling high Sarah I wish you were here Crossword and spelling bee killing our time As I think of how to copy this immaculate form I am reminded of a winter so kind December had fallen and days grew quite short As I asked for your Snapchat and prayed for a sign I figured you'd work or have some other plans To accompany me I could never request Against all odds you showed up ten minutes late White dress real tight and three shots deep Sarah I long for those days Climbing the fence to the pool in the shade Sarah remember that flask Fish shaped and brass filled with Cuervo gold My coffee weans and my head grows dim As I wonder in vain how long this can last The song I mean not the thing at hand Regaling myself with vain hope to laugh I'd write you novel id are you a quilt Japanese marble and a fluorescent kite These words can't define you so a song I can give An AirPod a piece on a Chautauqua hike Sarah I'm so sorry I left Hey Jude in mumbles will just have to wait Sarah I'll call in sec I just gotta remember I have no regrets
