We used to dance like it was going out of style. When you loved me for a while. And I remember every word you ever said, every kiss. . We used to sing all the oldest songs we knew.
On the ferris wheel. Looking out on Coney Island. Under more stars than. There are prostitutes in Thailand. . Our hair in the air. Our lips blue from cotton candy.
You held me upside-down. Till I couldn't breathe anymore. Then you held me like a baby. Television, like wine and cigarettes. Like grains of sand and raspberry schnapps.
The saddest brown eyes I'll ever know. You gave up crying so long ago. But come outside and watch the snow. Softly falling. . Sad little moon in the big black sky.
