Is this how it ends?
Middle seat at sunset
To a stranger I give the window
A sense of security, surrounded by strangers.
But I stick my
Head over your lap
Because I find sunset nice
Looking over the wings
And the soda bubbles
And the engine goes,
I always liked ginger ale
And the fire
So hot and loud and I don’t even know you yet but did I mention how hot it was? The flames and maybe I love you now, or maybe I always did.
This time in the window, I find my reflection, myself, smiling.
I always thought life was monotonous
But what does that even matter. You’re a stranger and I just want
But what does that even matter. You’re a stranger and I just want
One more sip
Of my ginger ale.
