More Than Anything

I can still remember the nights...
we sat in my car in the parking lot of Tim Horton's.

Talked for hours and hours....talked until 4:00am
until the coffee and peppermint tea had run out.

We smoked cigarettes and listened to music.

You with your seat all the way back,
me with my legs stretched across your lap.

We made plans for the future,
shared our innermost desires and our darkest secrets.
Pondered aloud what it would be like to run away together.

The girl at the drive-thru who worked the night shift
remembered our faces and our orders.

On those nights I loved you more than anything.
