Away From Time Dec 2010
Many say that 12 months is a long time
It goes by quick with you on my mind
A few arguments (say 11?) have gone by
We started gossip in the public eye
10 fingers perfectly fill in empty spaces
You taught me a few funny faces
Symphony #9 was never our kind of song
Twilight with a dash of vanilla, we couldn't go wrong
Losing most of our 8 hours of sleep
Due to conversations and questions that were deep
Spending 7 classes daydreaming of you being so prim
That non-class I spent walking by you in gym
At 6 months we made ourselves pretty for Grad
It’s just on of the hundreds of good times we've had
5 names that I call you more than once
I think meeting you must've been a bunce
The last time I felt your warmth was 4 months ago
Yet I rejoice that soon I will see you and leave this snow
I've got more that 3, so hold onto my sweater girl
I smile wide when I get your letters girl
The 2 of us make a super adorable couple
It seems my heart's size has doubled
1 year together, it’s quite a feat
My love for you is complete
Some days silence is utterly stunning
The aspect of talking without a tongue
No mistakes made to send people running
No pointless chatter chaotically sung
And some days I wish the world would just hush
Finally, people can listen for once
Maybe we slow down, forgetting the rush
Pause the media and behold a bunce
Or maybe our world is now too far gone
Silence affixed to the staticky past
No longer do we hear the birds at dawn
But then again nobody ever asked
Whatever happened to the quietness?
It’s muffled by our own self-righteousness

— The End —
