saturday

let's talk about saturday night;

pouring rain

memories made 

and songs that were played on may 16th

and how it well surpassed january 11th,

a day I never thought could be beaten. 

we were like day dreams and fantasies

pretty dresses and loose ties,

cherry sodas and fingers intertwined,

curled lips and brown eyes.

we were us

the us we used to be,

and for the first time in 6 months the middle seat in your truck was saved for me and instead of toleration we were adoration.

we were us.

my little hands that fit with your big ones

and your arms that were always meant to be for my shoulders

and my lips on your cheek were smoother.

we were right.

and Saturday night reminded us of that as we stood there in the rain

chanting names and running away from the police.

we were us.

and "us" is all I've wanted forever;

so shoutout to Saturday night and rainstorms,

thanks for letting it happen.
