The First Day of My Second Life

Roaming through shambles
 Hand in hand
 Our fingernails digging into palm
 To indicate our first first reaction
 Soaked my shoulder with your eyes
 I run through my head
 Without caution to find the words
 To get you to stop
 Sobbing I utter the phrases
 Of what we will build back up
 Won't make the same mistakes again
 We will talk
 Won't pull away when
 One wants to show affection
 Soaked your shoulder with my eyes
 Overwhelmed by emotion
 Overwhelmed with the feeling
 That everything will be ok
 Overwhelmed everyone will be
 Take these new songs of youth
 Because you are aware
 Write new songs for youth
 Because they rot inside.
 It just showed up
 Bags in hand, bags in hand.
 It gives me chills
 How easy I thought it would be.
 So I let it in
 Bags in hand, bags in hand...
