When I Was a Little Girl

As I lie here with you under the stars, I feel infinite Nothing can take us back now Your hand graces my body as if to cross boundaries every inch The night stars shine so bright And your faded plaid shirt brings me comfort as I slowly come closer The wind travels through my hair, marking miles I try to forget that time and distance will be the only thing keeping us apart But for now, in this moment, stay close to my heart For I will be forever shattered if I lose you For I will be forever shattered if you just become a distant memory and my worst fear will come true of me not knowing what could have been I used to dream of this when I was a little girl Racing against time, as we bid goodbye or laying forever under the night sky and talking, of our dreams, our hopes, our love Of two years going by too long, and me racing, heart pounding, mind wondering where you have gone But here I am running, me racing, heart pounding, no longer caring where you were just glad I will see you. Time. Time. Time. Do not fail me now. As if every stride is a torn piece of clothing coming closer together. Distance. Distance. Distance. I can finally see. MY thoughts racing. I crash, into your arms. And I immediately go back to when I was a little girl.
