Lauren

i like the way

you say my name

the way you

stretch out

the middle vowels

so there's a smile

on your face

but you live

so far away

i wish that i could just

pick you up and put you

in a closer place

lauren

when will i

see you again?

when will i

finally get back to you?

well i hope that it's soonhalf the country

isn't nearly far enough to

cancel the connection

which has quickly grown

between us

and i feel every mile

that is keeping you from me

and i can't wait until

they melt away

beneath your airplane seat

and i hate all

the dallas boys

who fumbled with

your heart

because i'd do just

the opposite

if we weren't

so far apart
