• There's no combination of words I could put on the back of postcard. No songs that I could sing but I can try for your heart...

    I smiled as I approached her, sitting next to her on the fresh, green grass leaning back on the tree. "Hey.." I said. She nodded at me. I stared up at the sky, crossing my arms. We sat in silence for a while, letting our thoughts drift away. Casually, I yawned and stretched out my arms, resting one on on her shoulder. She smiled and looked up to me, her eyes gleaming. I chuckled to myself quietly. "So, beautiful... What do you want to do now?" I asked her.

    Our dreams they are made out of real things like a shoebox of photographs with sepiatone loving. Love is the answer, at least for most of the questions in my heart...

    She shrugged her shoulders and responded, "I don't really care. As long as I'm with you." She smiled up at me, and I smiled back. I thought for a while about what to do. I rubbed my chin, thinking deeply. "Okay then..." she said, giving me a weird look. I laughed.
    "Yeah, sorry," I told her. "How about we go to my house then?" I asked, and then held her hand and walked to my house. As we walked in, she noticed a shoebox sitting on the table and walked over to it. She opened it slowly.
    "Wow, you still have that?"

    And why are we here? And where do we go? And how come it's so hard? It's not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving. I'll tell you one thing it's always better when we're together...

    I nodded slightly. "Uhm, yeah. I do," I explained. She laughed and sat down. She looked through the pictures inside the box. Carefully, she held them one by one and examined them. I sat down next to her and peeked over her shoulder. "I remember that," I said, smiling as I pointed to a picture of us at the park, us both at the sandbox. Most of our teeth hadn't even grown yet, but we still had the biggest smiles ever. "I can't believe that we've known each other for that long," I began. "We must've been through a lot." She looked at me and nodded in agreement. I think we both knew that.

    Mmm, it's always better when we're together. Yeah, we'll look at the stars when we're together. Well, it'll always be better when we're together. Yeah, it's always better when we're together...

    There was times when we were absolutely happy, and everything in life seemed to be going well. And, there were other times when one of us was depressed, but we always made each other happy. It was simple: we were best friends. Forever. We knew every part of each other, what made us happy or what made us sad. I knew that we could never be apart from each other, it was like we completed each other. And, well, we were better when we were together.

    And all these moments might just find their way into my dreams tonight. But I know they'll be gone when the morning light sings and brings new things for tomorrow night you'll see that they'll be gone too...

    I yawned and stretched my arms. "I'm not playing that game," she said, staring at me. I chuckled to myself but shook my head. She was still looking at the pictures, studying each and everyone of them. There was a ton of pictures in that box, and I knew she was going to look at every one of them.
    "I'm not doing that. I'm just tired. Geeez," I responded, laying down on the couch. I put a pillow behind my head and closed my eyes. She kept on sitting there, fascinated at the pictures in the box. "Wow, you must really like those, huh?" I asked. She smiled at me and nodded in response, agreeing.

    Too many things I have to do, but if all of these dreams might find their way into my day and day scene. I'd be under the impression I was somewhere in between with only me and you...

    I chuckled to myself. It was like today was a dream. It was the perfect day, I was just chilling with her. And we were alone. Together. I felt happy. There wasn't anytime that I felt more happy. Or at least it seemed like it. I sat up and leaned against the couch and watched her look at the pictures before her. "Wow, are you done with those?" I asked with a laugh. She put the final one down, and carefully put the box away.
    "Yeah, I'm done," she responded as she scooted over next to me. I put my arm around her and hugged her close. She looked up at me, smiling.

    Not so many things we got to be, or places we got to be. We'll sit beneath the mango tree now. It's always better when we're together. Mmm, it's somewhere in between we're together. Well, it's always better when we're together. Yeah, it's always better when we're together...

    "I-I love you," she said, blushing, looking at me. I looked back at her.
    "I love you too," I said, looking at her. She giggled and looked away. I chuckled quietly and sat there, enjoying the moment. She was my life now, and I knew it. She's the only one that could make me happy anymore. I kissed her cheek and she looked up at me.

    Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm. I believe in memories. The look so pretty when when I sleep. Hey now, and when I wake up, you look so pretty sleeping next to me but there is not enough time. And, there is no song that I could sing and there is no combination of words I could say, but I will still tell you one thing. We're better together...

    After a while, she fell asleep next to me. I hugged her close to me and looked up at the cieling, humming a little lullaby. And, I began to fell sleepy and fell asleep too. I closed my eyes and smiled to myself. Because I knew that we were better together.
