[matthewsea]

We painted the sky pink and melted the trees
The scorpion smiled at me
and cats went into the sea

I thought I was dreaming
But you told me no
We make reality
or so you promised

Our kids put rain in tiny buckets
Stored them in the fridge
and rainbows were made

I laughed at your absurdity
You did the same
But we both shared the belief
Didn't we before

Remember the warmth
as your hand held mine
Remember the joy
as your lips touched mine

Remember what you said
That in this world
Love's not meant to be
We were

Then tell me
What's wrong with me
Or what's wrong with you
And what's wrong with us

The day the sky turns blue
the truth unveiled
It was never real
But I still miss you
