i laid on my right side

towards the window.

the way you always hated.

you laid behind me

and leaned your head up to the crook of my neck.

you kissed my shoulder

so lightly that i couldn't feel it

until now.

our song in the background

took us around the world

and you sang along in a way that

might not get a standing ovation

but made me so glad that i fell in love with you.

wait. they don't love you like i love you.

but all i heard was the voices in our heads saying

wait. they don't love you like i love you.

"wherever you go, i'm going with you

so don't leave me. please don't ever leave me.

i will surely get lost and i don't have a

map."
