whooping cough girl

how it used to feel
when we would meet
and our lips would touch
throughout the dark places on my sunny island

your sweet lovely embrace
and how you let me feel wanted
drove me up the wall
and i wanted to stay up there
when you went away

i stayed up there forever and a day
thinking of the sweet moments we had
the way you made me feel
like i had nothing i couldn't replace

that was such a crisp, sweet feeling
and i can still remember it
when i want to

the tears I shed
when you left
the pains i felt
like a cat up in a tree
not knowing how to come down

now i return
to where it all happened
and i don't want to land back on that ledge
but i don't know how i'm going to avoid it

all wrapped into one
you were
all mine all the time
