Brown Paper

from Falling Up by Keith Porteous

/

lyrics

The poster that was made for me; I love it very much.
But now those memories in it break my heart and our future is gone

I’ll wrap it in brown paper tight
Save it for if we reunite
My skin is drying
I miss your warmth
Feelings under attack

It’s hard to choose what pictures to put in these frames
Friends who are gone don’t deserve to live in them
There are secrets wrapped in brown paper in a box under my bed
I still have that brand new lego set we never built together

I’ll wrap it in brown paper tight
Save it for if we collide
I pricked my finger just to feel
Then I knew what to do

I wrapped what’s left of you in me and sent it astray
But I still keep the poster you made for me locked away
