The Landmarks of Lovers

My hand touching your hand, my heart in my throat

My hand touching your hand, my heart in my throat

My hand touching your hand
My heart in my throat
I hit pause on this scene
And reach for my coat

I leave us behind
Right before we’d fall
When I wanted everything
And you would have given it all

I walk down the streets
Glistening with rain
Past the landmarks of lovers
Through an ocean…
