Videos

Videos of you replay in my head

Especially when I lie in my bed

I press rewind and I see your smile

And that soothes my mind for a while

 

Videos of you replay in my heart

Piecing things together that would otherwise fall apart

I press fast forward and I hear your song

Like a peaceful river, it moves my fears along

 

Videos of you replay in my soul

Recreating a time when my life was whole

I press pause and I inhale the very essence of you

I press start and I exhale my resistance to a me without you
