As kisses go  it wasn't anything out of the ordinary

The alkaline lips  Her
Fingers wrapped around my belt   She had to go
She took a step back in and
Then she started to smile  I heard a funny sound

And everything seemed to
Shift    yeah

A crazy wail  A funny shutter of a bad magnetic event

A ghost ran through us

Moving like a shadow of a cloud

I wasn't sure

I thought that something
Happened but I didn't know what
The moment seemed to fade  And I turned my
Eyes back to her   That's when I saw

I freeze the look of pre-alert and study
It still  her smile starts to loosen

Her pupils yawn wide And then she's
Blown    From the face of the earth

There wasn't any wind  No noise
No nothing just a body jerked skyward  limbs
Flailing like an unloved marionette

At impossible speed  Receding away like a
Far away dot   I can see her still
Scream for help but no one answered
She turned end on end like a long lost astronaut

I felt the summer air reclaim me
The chirp of a bird  the whisper of leaves
And I was frozen

To the face of the earth

I never really knew the way she lived her life

I tried a couple numbers but they never called back

I didn't know her family or friends at all

With no one to call  summer turned into fall

I gave up

It's been a
Couple years and I guess I'm fine about it

It's not like we were married It
Was three or four months

And nothing's really different Though it seems like
I've spent My life in planes

Which is kind of strange  But I don't know

La la la la la la la la la la la la
