A show no one would come to see

Dancing on the gazebo in gaudy rhinestones

Making fools of ourselves in public

Drawing on our faces with black lipstick

Late nights talking to strangers

Staying up to watch the sunrise

Streaking down the street

Sitting in a parked limousine

Laying on a cloudy beach

Taking candid photographs of each other

Walking hand in hand

Wearing each other’s clothes

Jumping over fences

Dying hair red with nothing but sugar

Silly Halloween costumes

Dinosaur boob tattoos

Boxes made for the love of each other

 

It was never meant to last

But how sweet it was

In hindsight
