Sapphire equinox

The night comes back in flashes, 
As I look for the pieces,
Buried somewhere in these ashes. 

So what changed that one time? 
We were an acquiescent class
Where talking was a crime. 

Maybe we had too much to drink,
A mess and an introvert
We simply forgot to think.  

Did I say something senseless? 
I don’t remember much except 
Your hand under my dress. 

Oh what I wouldn’t give 
To rewind time
To remember what I did with you 
And how it felt to look at that azure blue
