not dead yet

she said, "come on boy, you're not dead yet!
tell me all the things that you like about life."
and i said

i miss the rain the way it falls down from the sky
just like the tears that form around my eyes
every time she smiles it makes me want to cry

yeah i like my sheets the way they feel against my feet
and the warmth from her arms when she wraps them around me
as i lie there and just listen to the way her heart beats

and she said, "come on boy you're not gone yet!
tell me all the things that you like about life."
and i said

i love these memories the ones we'll always keep
dreams of our faces the long gone places that i see
so that i'll never be alone when it's time for me to sleep

and i like to breathe how it inspires me to write
this rain, the warmth, the air, what i see at night
most of all it's her love that reminds me i'm alright.

and she laughed
and i laughed...
silly girl
