golden sunshine

it's because you sat on the phone
with me that night for
three hours and told me everything.

the first time you knew, the
first time you told someone, the
first time they told you not to proceed,
the first time they told you to
proceed, the first time you hessitated,
your first dream about me, your
song for me, your prayers for me,
everything, and you told me-
and this changed my life-
"it's always been you, r!tah."
