Array ( [sid] => 156026 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Planes, Lanes, and Automobiles. [time] => 2009-12-17 17:08:08 [hometext] => Losing the one you loved in the time you were hoping would flourish your relationship. [bodytext] => ribbons of you wake up in bed.
i choke on them and spit them out.
lyrics we wrote adjusted instead
to a more solomn ending.

the lights distracted you from dealing
with the amount of longing I was feeling
as I inched my wrinkled hands towards yours
while staring at the ceiling, reeling.

these works of fiction
were never anything more
than photographs on my bedroom floor
i burned them all in a bitter rage
and let my broken heart take center stage

with anxious words and a racing heart
as you stepped out into the baggage claim
I said goodbye the two of us
it was the last time I felt sane.

your laughter illuminates his car
in mine, just the words
we used to sing along
before this all occured

now I'd do my best to forgive you
for all the things you've done
if you loved me in return
but how can you really love someone
to light a match then watch them burn

now I really wish you the best
I love you, you know that
but don't tell me how amazing he is
I can't deal with that.

Remember when you said
I knew you better than you knew yourself?
I guess I didn't know you at all
Now you're in the arms of someone else.
