"Work until you no longer have to introduce yourself."


Even though I know

I can’t stay here forever

I want to hold you here

And never let you leave

Take a polaroid of you and me

Capture this moment

Laying in the grass

Eyes almost closed

But I can’t go to sleep just yet

If I do

You might leave

And I won’t be able to hold you forever

The polaroid of us

Might disappear with the wind

And the grass

Becomes ash under my feet
