-Rewind-


Cut a tape of my favorite songs
Said what I can't face to face
I hoped that you would share all my thoughts
We are young and unimpressed, with all you'd recognize.

That was the song he had heard on the way home the first time he had seen her.

The words jumpled up at the end of the day, but he knew the words about as well as he knew his family's history.

Blurry at some parts, but he knew the heart of the song.

He knew the melody.



************************
So play it all over
Turn it wide.
Now there is nothing but a
Mix tape left behind
Now it won't rewind

That was the song the radio station played on his
way home, from convincing her not to leave.

His words did little good, because she left him .

But the words of the song he almost tattooed on his
body,"We've got to hold on, to what we got"

If only the ink wasn't so permaente.
