oops

I look at your shoulder blades,
The flag on your shirt
The curl of your hair,
The edge of your hat.
Sitting behind you
I knew not such joy
My hand hits your back,
As I stand, but you dont look.
Its a really light night
As I follow to the flag,
Yards behind you,
I sprint to catch up
With my sister right by you
I go stand by her
And next to you
Waiting to hold hands
My sister and I,
We discuss a song
You say its a good one,
I think I might die
Then you hold out your hand,
I take it in mine
They lower the flag,
And we say goodnight
Standing by you
As you talk with your friend,
Then my cabin is called
I have to go now.
Wearing the shirt
I think that you want,
I go off to bed, smiling
Wont let my hand hit anything but my sleeve
The sleeve that was on yours,
The arm that touched yours.
I swear I will never
Get my hand wet again.
You dont know I like you,
Cause Im not good enough
Not good enough for you,
Ill not let you know.
You who can walk
In waist deep water
With a million kids tackling you,
Hanging on your feet, and never fall
You who can bench-press
The kids in your cabin,
Out run us in games,
And catch grapes in your mouth
You who I fell chasing,
When I said I was okay,
But really I wasnt.
Cause you were too far away
You who stars
On my disposable camera
Whose foot I even
Took a picture of
You with the perfect toes,
Perfect arms,
Perfect abs,
Perfect knees
You three year older,
A million miles away,
Who doesnt know I exist,
Except for my shirt
I should have said
That I didnt want it,
Then you would have
A reason to remember me.
But I didnt, you dont,
Youre a counselor.
Me, a camper.
Maybe in three years,
Youll know me,
When Im too a counselor
Like me, or be my friend.
Until then, Ill miss u Scooter
