I miss fourteenth street on a saturday
and the color of your eyes
i miss meridian hill mornings
and the corners of your smile
the path i traced from my house to your door
the streets i'd wandered there before
i criss crossed state lines to explore
a life i couldn't quite ignore
the district sleeps in color
but i sleep alone
my destiny is static
but i am on the run
i miss the cuyahoga river
the backyard at my parents house
ohio's melancholy winters
my grandparents blue couch
your hands tapped on the table as i squirmed
we talked about lives we led before
back when your hand fit tucked in mine
a love we couldn't quite leave behind
now you sleep with someone
and she's not me
so i will keep on dreaming
of my cities to help me
sleep
