now, we write

the couple

you seem so mysterious there,
with your fancy car,
and rockstar guitar.

you seem so sad there,
with tears leaking from your eyes,
like you weren't ready to say the goodbyes.

I seem so boring here,
with my eyes covered by glasses,
and head down in all my classes.

I seem so happy here,
with legs jumping up and down,
lips never bent into a frown.

we seem so lonely now,
but we don't know why we are, or how.

we seem so young,
but tired from all the struggles life has brung.

together though,
hands entwined just so,
eyes locked in an embrace,

the chase;
was worth it.
