One kiss less.


This is the story of once upon a time
When I was crazy about you
And you were in love with me.

When we believed 
In the faith of our dreams 
And stories of going the distance.

And then I saw from afar
That the distance you could go
Was just on a road never taken with me

I imagine how you smell now,
And even through the distance 
I know your smell's changed.

Today I have dreamed and imagined. 
And indulged in the audacity of hope.
And the thing with knowledge is 
You just can't settle for less.

For I have seen too much
To ever be satisfied 
With the us I had left behind.

Nameless, song-less
We are just shells of a wonderful past.
Dusty trophies of love and other wonders
Way past their sell-by dates.
