Fourth of July
Twenty something
I can still remember the last time I felt this way
It was on your roof
How was that possible
If we found the link
To keep alive the dream
Whatever it takes to get back to that way of thinking
We create it
We find a ladder to the top
What have I become
Doesn't seem so long
Shell of a man I was I have found the terrorists
Staring at the void call off the search boys
And it was all okay
At least you said it was
Your face was disappearing but I was still hearing you
You rose above the din
Your voice is still ringing in my ears
In the dark our love was shining
Brighter than the light above the city we were bathing in
Oh one day this will feel so far away
So just remember me
We can meet here
What would you like
Anything at all
I can help facilitate the passing of time
Even though it feels so wrong
Separating life and poem
It was not the lie
It was not truth
It was just a night and it was all of us together
For the first and last time
We were at the top the whole night
Power outages a tower shouting hate
People everywhere enveloped in a fear
Oh one day this will feel so far away
So stay in my memory
Where we can always meet
