Tonight

Today, I looked up at you

As they waves

Pulled the leaves

Like old memories

To the wall.

To say that I was there with you

Would imply that

What we felt and

What we saw

Was the same,

But not at all.

To me, we were floating

Through time and

Through space,

Unreal, unknown,

Undisturbed

Like a dream.

To you, we were walking,

And laughing,

And living

Like the others around us

With nothing

To see.

Tonight, I looked over at you

As the skies

Closed their eyes

And mine

Opened wide

To take in your light.

Tomorrow, I will see

Who’s vision of us

Was real,

And I will finally know

Who was right,

Just not tonight.
