Old Thoughts; Revisited.

As quickly as it surrounded us it evaporated into tiny particles filling the air we were breathing in through our lungs, the one body part that neither of us had ever fully appreciated until now when we were grasping and gasping for that one last breath in and out, but on the exhale something finally clicks as you ride down the hill to my house to tell me the news.
It's true!
It's true!
We've finally figured out the reason we've been fighting all this time, it's not you and Lord knows it's not me so it must be whatever was in that very first instance that moment that our eyes introduced themselves to each other without even consulting their owners, the thought of it still raises goosebumps on the back of my neck like before.
I suppose it's true what they (the philosophers, I mean) say about ill fated people; they're attracted to one another or so it would seem we never even knew who the other person was, we were bouncing words back and forth off of each others walls, all the while unknowingly building them up higher and higher until we could no longer see over the tops of them, shouting louder for one another but to no answer.
I simply wanted to know you, but you couldn't even give me that, if not that then what could you have given me? Love? No, not love, we didn't have love, we had an understanding that with each passing second we were growing further and further apart until one of us reached the edge and both ledges began to unravel, ultimately bringing us closer and closer back to where we first started, in the middle, standing toe to toe wondering when the walls will stop closing in on us.
It's true
It's true!
We Never Even Knew Each Other.
