Metropolitan Madness

I meant it,
every single word of it,
and I missed you so very much,
and I meant that, too

but none of it meant we should spend our nights together,
hands clasped,

none of it was reason for panic,
none of it was anyone's fault,

fault wasn't bridging these divides,
wasn't putting our pieces back together,

and it was right,
all was right with it,
and the stars hung heavy on these city dreamers,

and on the rest of us
