we sit and stare
at the oceans that rise and run
at the stars that twinkle and shine
at the world, still and quiet around us
a moment frozen in time
and as cringy as it sounds
it’s our moment
yours and mine
but you aren’t mine
and i’m not yours
but in that moment we forget
about how time is not on our side
we forget about the girl you like
the guy i used to like
we forget about who we are
and become the people we wish we were
i wrap my arms around you
and hold you tight
and no matter how many times people look and point
they’re just outsiders
and i remember
I remember you and me
and the possibility of us
is better than the reality of you and i
because in the end
friends or not
lovers or foes
we are just people watching
watching
waiting
dreaming
dying…
