Charlottesville (Free verse) by New Life Drug
Do you remember the time we sat together on that sinking couch during
the storm?
It was in the lobby, and I was wet.
Little did I know you weren't thinking of me.
I heard her words so confident, and I should have known you felt the
same.
Because she said "I like him" and little did I know you touched her 3,
000 feet up in the air.
I was torn like the lighting in the sky.
That night in Charlottesville could have been so beautiful And the
phones weren't working so I took pictures of the falling, swirling, rain
while the fire department came.
The alarms went off and I remember feeling sick and so distant on that
couch. That damn fake antique.
A place trying to look so classy with its marble floors and all this
time you were the filthy one.
I guess it was a perfect time to rain because it was like my soul crying.
Such a happy time.
Maybe I shouldn't have gone up and sat alone in the big blue chair
because during that time you were deciding if you were going to leave me,
which you ended up doing.
I suppose that's why you barely said I word on that fuckin sinking (and
now damp) couch.
If only I knew what you were hiding from me.
That night.. I remember... We ate at the Italian place and met a
comedian in the girl's room.
I'll never forget the storm, and what you did to me.
I wont forget Charlottesville
