12 I Was Here Lindsey Wilson I was here And so were you It seems so long ago Wrinkled sheets of paper Now locked away somewhere Marked and torn and faded But subtle I was here And so were you Those perfect summer days spent Side by side, hand in hand Days we never would forget You loved me And I loved you I was here And so were you But we got older The nights got longer We got lost in translation I was afraid You were hurt I was here And then you weren’t And it wasn’t ok But now it is Complicated and confused in a wholly fucked-up way Because maybe that’s just how love is Echoes Up all night and all I can think about is you These words echo endlessly in my mind: The nagging thought in the back of my head that Never quite goes away. Up all night and all I can think about is you My limbs shudder slightly, and I have no way To control them No way To calm myself down, as my heart races And my head aches. uoy si tuoba kniht nac I lla dna thgin lla pU I feel twisted, ruined. This thought that pervades everything— Spinning faster than the night we danced, The room whirling around me in a blur of color— Is controlling my life. This thought, the bane of my existence: Why can’t I let you go? This isn’t about what’s on the surface— We have a deeper connection, you and I. Up all night and all I can think about is you Lindsey Wilson Up all night and all I can think about is you
