three little words.

we met in a cloud
and called ourselves lovers
it beat down on our heads
like rain
our mistakes were like valentines
committed out of love
we threw fear onto the flame
it exploded
and i lost you

i miss it, you said
in the middle of the night
then you couldn't decide
what you meant
with your head on my chest
and my heart pounding through it
up from your mouth these words went:
i miss it

the clarity of friendship
has opened my eyes
you are kind
much more so than i
the rain no longer falls
and the cloud has lifted
but these valentines, these mistakes
have ripped me from your heart
and it's too late to say why
i miss it, too
