Heavy and thick
And cold comes as the wind picks up
Trees swaying in unison
You taught me how to tell the rain
How to feel it’s coming on my skin
And in my nose
How to tell my own heart
The smell of the rain in the grass
Reminds me of you
How to not take myself so seriously
I am still learning
I never held your hand
I wonder what it might be like
I did feel your heartbeat
And I will always remember you by my bedside
Taking your own heart to battle
Just like I did
A very long time ago
You taught me, sadly, I learned too late
How to not fear love
I made every mistake possible
Did everything I could to push you away
And I succeeded
Because I’m sly that
I know what strings to pull
Buttons to push
And I succeeded
To my own regret
I don’t care if I ever hold your hand
But I want to open my heart
