Let me pretend.
That summer days waft in your cologne.
Walks in sunshine break through the mold
Of monotony that aches and looms.
Let me pretend.
That the quiet speaks so loudly of you.
And raindrops beat to your heart when I’m sprawled across your heart.
And the earth feels new.
Let me pretend.
The joy rides in downtown boom
like speakers on loud and laughter becomes the orchestra of our song
Let me pretend.
I know how your hand feels and folds.
The ways your smile can envelope and look sideways in the early morn.
Let’s just pretend.
I could be meant for you.
And our worlds could collide like sparks on 4th of July
And joy laced the feeling of two unions being so perfect and right.
Let’s just pretend.
This moment could be anything but make believe.
Where fairytales aren’t make believe.
And this feeling could be true.
Just let me live here in the pretend.
So today won’t end.
And I could just be with you.
