a lifetime

allie woke up 8am

graduation day. got into a car

and crashed along the way. when we arrived late to the wake

stole the urn while they

looked away

and drove to the beach

'cause i knew you'd want it

that way. and you were standing

on the hood of the car

singing out loud

when the sun came up. and i know i wasn't right

but it felt so good. and your mother didn't mind

like i thought she would. and that rem song was playing

in my mind. and three and a half minutes

felt like a lifetime

it felt like a lifetime

and you move like water

i could drown in you. and i fell so deep once

till you pulled me through

you would tell me

no one is allowed to be so proud
