For David
Your blue eyes
Pupils wide
Bet you don’t remember
How high we were
Whitney’s voice
Arguing with Kay
You yelling about a branch in your eye
Me taking another hit off your pipe
Me telling you I have to leave
You not listening
Buying more weed
From the guy in the corner
Whose name I still don’t know
Even though he told me
When he stuck his tongue down my throat
Kay giving you visine
To clear up your eyes
So you and your parents
Wouldn’t have another fight
Going out to my car
Cursing when it didn’t start
But I knew how to fix it
Saying I was smart
Bet you don’t remember how high we were
Driving away
Me being upset
Thinking I had to leave you
But we still had time
Another parking lot
Your hands in my hair
My mouth against yours
Telling me it’s okay
Saying that you’ll stay
But really you won’t
Bet you don’t remember how high we were
Me listening
Nodding my consent
Kissing you harder
Something I resent
My hands in your hair
Your mouth against mine
Me whispering it’s okay
Because I know you won’t stay
The look in your eyes
When you got up to leave
Asking to kiss me
One last time
And I said okay
But I didn’t want it to be our last
Bet you don’t remember how high we were
