Now and Then

I see the stars
and they're falling for you
wherever you are.
And the way your voice sounds
after so many days
of wondering
of not knowing
of loneliness
is like a slap in the face.
And the hesitance I hear,
it breaks my heart
it terrifies and thrills me all at once
and I do miss the way you laughed out loud
completely unafraid
so long ago
back when we knew it all
fearless and cocky
and so in love
we couldn't think straight.
