Cozy days as it stayed

You know one thing people would say
"One day you're on top of the world
The next theyre scraping the pavement
for your body to prepare for your wake"
Never fails to amaze.
After a while of Sally's waiting
Schools are open, so does college;
Back to where we started,
Met her on the same stairs
I waited for her on our first date.
Sort of embarassed she was,
her friends are around and shes unsure
"Are we cool?" or "not at all"
Sorry to be cliché
But Reality says
you never cease to take my breath away
Pre-concieved ideas I've had you sway aside,
This time around in our downtime;
Told me she had a man
but that we could still could hang around.
My mind's in doubt as it's Against my morals
and it's unfair for her date in hand;
Told me he's just a distraction.
We have similar bad traits no questions asked,
but the Crorepati question is,
"Am I really veering down the selfish path
yet again?"
It's time I make clear of
the steps I'll take,
To Always have your back or
fly to the moon and back
with no strings attached.
You put me in a place of indecision,
but you need to make your mind quick too,
Time keeps on ticking.
Yet, These are still the better days I'll be missing.
So there we were,
back together again
One of the best days I've had
Is when I'm with you
You liked having me around campus,
I sure did love showing you off too
Coutless photoshoots,
pretend professionals,
My supermodel? always you
I'd be lying if I ever denied that
Bunking or class-less days when you came over:
Blasted my woofers
And when our favorite song was on
Heads nodding, vibing goes on
Heart to heart talks after we tire
Remembering how they went so far
We didn't even care its dark or not
Just chatting there,
Middle of my bed
Deep down in my head, I know,
I had alot to call my own.
We patched up walls and hung up posters
We had so much fun,
Maybe just too much
Too much fun it's never enough,
So next time the song asks
"Have you ever seen the rain,
raining down on a sunny day?"
We'll get to say 'yes'
As our final moments of pain and pleasure
Was representative of an inevitable demise,
A demise of something we know we tried
As We both embrace our presence
with the impending breakup in mind
Pro-choice but may have made the wrong one
Broad array of choices but probably the best one
Tell myself the war and the match is won
At the end of the day, we kept ourselves warm
Not sure what's ahead,
but I'm glad we can take forward steps
As the opposite of love is indifference.
