Free Throw & You

You can write about someone endlessly 

Imagine their presence in car rides heading into the city 

Singing lyrics that meant the world to both you and them 

It just won't matter at the end of the day

Time has passed 

Bodies have replaced yours 

Its an open grave 

For you to peer in 

And remind yourself:

You're the one all the way at the bottom 

It was a moment of nostalgia

And even if it was for a few hours

He held you like it was December 2016 again 

The year is 2019 and he left you, again 

Be reminded that love only grows in sunlight 

And his is shady 

Unwilling to stretch its root towards you 

You.
