It's high school again
It's homecoming again
It's prom again, and again and again
It's errands that seem so important again
It's finding all the little stains on your car seats as you vacuum again
It's finding a pair of pants that aren't wrinkled again
It's being worried about over or under dressed again
It's a spontaneously racing heart again.
But,
It's not frightening
It's not stressful
It's as natural as breathing
It's calm confidence
It's original
It's soothing as it burns like whiskey
It's a bandshell filled with enthusiastic amateurs
It's gently waving grass and camp chairs
It's a quiet space between eyes
It's our third date
