polar opposites

by Rachel Lynch


You can live your life according to circumstances, or you can live your life according to a vision. From day one, you were down with mine. 

Giving new meaning to the songs we already know, filling the summer with a soundtrack we created together. You don't smoke, but you humor my insanities. Always down to keep me company, afternoons giving way to evenings out on the fire escape. We talked all night, but what did we really say? 

You have that affect on me, it's always an all over feeling. The way I'm pulled towards you when we're in the same room, inspiration at work. 

It's the details in people that I fall in love with. The way you have staples in your favorite hat, or the stickers on your guitar that hold such meaning.

Smokey voices, fire escapes stories, the pink sun washing lower Manhattan. A soul much like my own, you in reverse. Learning to connect to divine inspiration by watching others do the same. 

Now the winter's coming, but we've got so much more music to listen to. And you're the good things that come with a change of season.
