Space exploration
I want to take you by the hand and show you things / I want to talk about space / Roll my eyes at you when secretly I can't get enough

I don't miss you
It's not that I miss you / I miss your scent / I miss the way it wraps me up, tucks me in

Stale
Do you ever feel you are in a purgatory of your own making? / Do you ever wish something would transition / Transition to the side where I am living again

A place to lay your head
There is something really beautiful about waking up with someone / Sleeping is such an intimate thing / To trust someone enough to lay there with them unconscious for hours

Ignorance
Sometimes ignorance is bliss / The kind of ignorance that keeps us from knowing how a hospital smells / Or what the person we love the most truly feels about us

Maybe some things need to be read over and over again to be resonated / Sometimes we think we have read it for the final time because it hurt the most or it felt like the past / But maybe we have more control than that

Old Love, Are you listening?
The way I loved you can’t be measured / It can’t be measured in kisses, or sweet nothings / Because we never touched, despite only the slightest of hand holding

Fear
Fear dances in the halls of my memories / Fear resides in most of my present / It does not care where I am

Flowers
I have never cared more deeply for something so temporary / I trimmed the dead leaves and put them in water to preserve them for as long as I could / Make them stay alive

Nothing
I feel like nothing when you touch me / Parts of me flaking away / Being carried away in the winds that you control
