Evidence of our transgressions
smears down the window
Rain slowly falls
like nothing ever happened
But I was there
and you were there too
Liar lips press up too close
and whisper hot excuses
fogging the view
but I still see right through you
Like comforting bedtime tales
to keep her warm at night
meaningless words dance through leaves.
This isn't what you pictured, I'm sure
but it'll do, it'll do.
Whether the guilt is washed into the gutter
or fingered boldly onto cold glass
you were there too.
