under the magnolia

let your tears float

you remember when you used to lay in bed at night

on your side, because for some reason lying on your back felt weird

with blankets that didn't completely cover your feet

and your window was open a bit and the cars were rushing by

when suddenly, the world felt a bit too big?

yeah me too

and remember how that realization used to make us feel so small?

oh, how it would ache, right in our chest

not your heart, but somewhere near there

so much that it would make us cry

sobbing into the pillows

and it would be incredibly sad, but also good

because your tears would dry on your face

and you would sleep

drunk with the sense of soft peace

and you'll be gone
