Uninhibited

Tonight can we remember what we once were?

Can we recall

When youth kept us up all night

And wild hopes ran uninhibited, wild, with rampage

Through a town we said would never be enough?

Can we hold for one more moment

Those minutes, hours, days of happiness

Built upon nothing more than coffee chats and midnight rides

In the midst of chaos surrounding our lives?

Can we walk back into these memories

That have followed me around

Every apartment, city, and hallowed ground

I’ve stood upon throughout my days?

Tonight can we remember what we once were?

Can we recall

Why days slowly, tenderly, without warning,

Pulled us apart;

So I now relive these memories

In the middle of my sleepless nights?
