There Was A Party

What you think its gonna bite?

A starry sky

A club beat

We were visiting the one school we'd both gotten into

Where was Kelly?

The beat got louder

I was pushing through crowds in a stairwell of this dorm or frat

Everyone was yelling

I didn't stop to memorize the details

I didn't know how much the night would matter

I opened a door

There was a party

A DJ

A beat pulsed on

A college

A campus

A manicured lawn

I waited for Kelly

'Cause she was my ride

I had combed the whole dance floor and wandered out –

Side the party

Or hallway

And it was –

And it was April and chilly

Or late March and warm

Our tour guide and Kelly were back at his dorm

The whole sky was spinning

I might have been drunk

As I steadied myself on the roof of her - trunk

All alone

Was I lost or was I alive?

In the space

In the hole she created

No anchor

Abandoned

I waited
