Us, Outside.
I know,
__when you stole my car
__and drove away.
__when you stayed.
__That when your voice
__hits a three note chord
__and echoes.
__There is so much
__hair in my face
__so much nightly disgrace.
__But I know.
__I know that when I
__can be still and quiet
__like a Zelda in the woods,
__the mottled sun
__will shine green
__on both of us.
__And through the trees
__he vaguely sees
__a child running away,
__like a chased thing.
