In the beginning...
you felt like some kind of magic
You felt like the first gasp of air
after breaking the surface of the water
You felt like being snuggled up
under a toasty warm blanket on a stormy day
You felt like that piece of music
where it comes together, just right, and gives me chills
You felt like that road with the dip in it
where for a second the bottom drops out and I'm floating
You felt like a morning of sleeping in
And waking up to sunshine and birds chirping
But now... it feels like the end..
The end of the magic...
No more long draws of air
The blanket has grown cold
The music has stopped playing
I'm taking a different road
No time to sleep in...
when all I can wonder is why I didn't feel like magic to you, too.
