like we were teens

Last night we held hands under the moonlight while the stars twinkled like giggling babies high on sugar

And you told me how much you loved me, your breath, hot in my ear

and the grass, cool beneath my palm

We kissed under the neon sign

right where the skyscraper met the sky

and the security chased us away

even though we weren't trespassing

and we giggled like we were teenagers

and we would live for ever.

I woke to find it was a dream

we never held hands

your breath hadn't caressed my skin

And I never tasted your sweet lips

And yet I hear your voice

And one thing I'm sure would take me through this bleak Monday

is that one day we'd hold hands

and we'd kiss

and we'd giggle like we were teens.
