Vanilla Twilight- Owl City
Molly sits, idly letting her feet dangle in the water of the small pond. Camping trip at her parents home. Visiting her parents wasn't horrid, but definitely not enjoyable. Especially since she had to spend so much time away from Chase.
'The stars lean down to kiss you, and I lie awake and miss you'
She sighs, and climbs over to her sleeping bag. Sleeping will be hard; she knows that. Usually Molly has two strong chef arms around her. Looking up at the stars, she smiles softly. Even the stars would probably want to kiss Chase.
But she would totally beat the stars, she thinks with a laugh.
'Pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere, cause I'll doze off safe and soundly'
Molly closes her eyes. Her body is numb. Sleep starts to pull her in, but all of a sudden she hears a crack of thunder.
She screeches, launching off of her sleeping bag. Rain starts to fall gently, but its soon pelting everything it can. Molly curses to herself as she speeds back to the house.
She slips in a pile of mud. It splatters against her pants and shirt. Some even gets in her hair. Molly curses louder.
Finally, after running at a pace where she assumes that she wouldn't fall again, she runs onto the front porch, and curls up on the rocking chair sitting there. Drips of water pool on the wood, darkening the colour. She wraps her arms around her knees, and pulls them close to herself.
'But I'll miss your arms around me'
Molly wishes Chase was here. Then he would wrap his arms around her, sharing his warmth. Instead, she's sitting alone in a creaky rocking chair, muddy and water all over her, as far away as it seems like she can get from him.
'I'd send a post card to you dear, cause I wish you were here'
Maybe she should send him a post card. She could take a picture of herself, all wet and miserable, and say 'Don't you wish you were here?". She wishes he was here. As mentioned, she would sit with him with his arms around her. . . . It would be lovely.
'I'll watch the night turn light blue, but its not the same without you'
The rain starts to lessen up into a drizzle. The steady beat of it starts to put Molly to sleep again, but one last flash of lightening, and blast of thunder wakes her up. The rain stops soon after.
The dark sky starts to lighten into a . . . Lighter blue. Molly remembers the time when she and Chase once watched the sun come up. Watching the sky while that happened was a beautiful moment, that was absolutely timeless.
Unless you were watching it alone.
'Because it takes two to whisper quietly'
There was no one to share it with tonight. Which saddened Molly immensely. Nobody to tell how pretty it was, or argue which colour looked the nicest.
'The silence isn't so bad, Til I look at my hands and feel sad'
But, she guesses that isn't too bad. The silence really gives her time to think about stuff. She unwraps her arms from around her legs, and sits normally on the chair. Her hands clench together tightly. Eyes dart down to her hands and her eyes almost start to tear up.
'Because the spaces between my fingers are right where yours fit perfectly'
Her hands and his fit together so well. And now they were both so far. . .
'I'll find repose in new ways'
Maybe she'll find a different way to get peace. Surely there was another way to rest peacefully; Not just being with him.
'Though I haven't slept in two days'
Although it hasn't been working the past few days when she couldn't sleep. She just stays awake all of the time, unless he's with her.
'Cause cold nostalgia chills me to the bone'
But the want to be with him gives her goosebumps. She wishes that she could borrow Chase's jacket. Or his apron. They'd both be nice for her coldness.
'But drenched in a vanilla twilight, I'll sit on the front porch all night'
She sighs. Maybe she'll just sit on the porch. All day. All night. It was a comfortable chair. Maybe she could just stay. . .
No. Molly needed to get a grip.
'Waist deep in thought, because when I think of you I don't feel so alone'
Molly shakes her head to herself. There's so much to think about; but she can only think of Chase. Especially since she cannot be with him. It just makes her want him more. Her eyes tear up.
'I don't feel so alone'
The young rancher gets up out of her chair, tears falling from her eyes. "I need some juice" She says softly to herself, opening the door to the small house. She walks herself to the fridge and opens it.
'I don't feel so alone'
Molly pulls out the jug of orange juice, pouring herself a small glass. Then she takes the glass to the small wooden table and takes a seat. Sourness rides along her tongue as she sips the orangy drink.
'As many times as I blink, I'll think of you tonight'
She blinks the tears away.. In the blackness she can see an outline of Chase's face. Molly blinks again, and multiple more times after that to see the picture.
'I'll think of you tonight'
Over and over again.
'When violet eyes get brighter, and heavy wings get lighter'
She smiles. Someday when her eyes, purple from tears, get luminous with joy, and burdens lift from her shoulders, then they can be together.
'I'll taste the sky and feel alive again'
She'll taste the love on his lips, and feel happy once more.
'And I'll forget the world I know, but I swear I won't forget you'
And no matter what she forgets – even if he forgets the whole world that she lives in – she will never, ever forget him. Never.
'Oh, if my voice could reach back through the past'
If she could somehow go back in time, and tell him something, she even knew what she would say.
'I'd whisper in your ear, Oh, I wish you were here'
"I love you"
