Listening to O by Damien Rice.
              Hey, do you remember that album?
              God I loved it, and the other one, 9!
I turned to look at you,
but no. 

              You didn't remember,
would never remember,
were far too young
to be holed up in a bedroom,
writing the lyrics on your wall
in permanent marker,
your MSN screen name.
You were far too young
to care so intensely then,
when I was drowning in it.

You look left,
I look at you looking left,
and think we're looking at the same thing.
But we're not.
