Kind of like the Metro Station song, but more so because of the waves of feelings that wash over me.
The part where you close your eyes, and you just remember your past, parts of your mind that you tried to block out (hold me back, I can't keep this in)
Your first kiss, your heart beating when you first held hands, the one mistake you made forever
That one night where you did something you've always wanted, the infatuation and I love you's, the part where you two danced the night away
It's not just the fact that you made this together, you were naive young and so was I, your first cuddle in the dark, the one night where you just wanted everything to be all right, the sense of disrepair as you know exactly where to take me
Sheets in unfashionable array, staring into your eyes at midnight, Taylor Swift singalongs and Twilight, early hockey games at seven thirty, choking out your cutting words in our fight, so into you that it hurts to breathe, knowing you won't be able to sleep this off tonight
It's the sinking feeling in the air that you won't be the same after me.
Let's get away from this all, Lasalle or Lowville Park,
Back to the basics, no more question marks
Let's make this right, you won't be this age forever
Tell me the chance hasn't passed us by,
Cause girl the stars have never shined so bright
Slowly...
Falling Apart.

Tyler,
This is much shorter than your norm but you have managed to put so much energy into it. I can feel the innocence and the savoring of the moments - some excruciatingly sweet and some agonizingly painful.
You are such a Master of imagery with your words. It's always such a pleasure to read your creations. I hope you never stop writing. Just as you hope to always be 17. :D
Thank you!
Kitty
Cathetel ....
I loved reading it, so beautiful and shows us the reality that not just to dream but to make them come true.
"the one mistake you made forever" really resonated with me. it's true that our mistakes last longer than we think.
if human life is the fabric then mistakes are the thread
