ahh
I love when you sleep talk And breathe heavy on my chest I love when you shiver turning blankets into nests And eyelashes fluttering small birds taking flight I love when you sleep talk And hold me close at night

Sleep
I could walk a tight rope across your collarbone and trapeze across your chest, I would nestle in the crease of your elbow then escape down your forearm, I can trace the veins in your wrist and read the future in your palms, I will dance on your finger tips then tangle myself into the spaces between.

when Helen tried to commit suicide I didn't know until she told me at the Oklahoma! premier when I said I hadn't seen her in so long and she casually stuffed her hands in her pockets and said *Well, yeah, I tried to **** myself and was in a place* so I took her face between my palms and kissed her forehead which was out of character for me, back then, but I wanted to pull the black out of her brain with my lips.

helena.
I like it when you hold me When I can look into your eyes For you are beauty, a sense of familiarity, the feeling that you are all I need in my life.

I saw your message and words flowed out in less than 2 minutes
It's obvious, isn't it? When two similar planets pass by each other and get caught in each other's gravity. It's obvious what must happen here. The words not said scream loud enough to bridge the hundreds of miles, and we still don't say them. Not yet. It's obvious we haven't been here before. Into uncharted waters, we move so very slowly, careful not to create waves before we meet in the center, careful not to misstep, so that we can do things right for once. It's obvious.

Obvious
It feels like there is a volcano rupturing inside of me. I can feel it in my chest I feel it throughout my veins and if you ever see this, look at it as if it is a message in a bottle at the bottom of the sea that reads "come find me."

Message in A Bottle
Maybe some day we will dance Holding hands in disbelief As tears of joy flow from our eyes While the field of flowers will cheer in salute Maybe our eternity will come to an end And our day will come to begin . . . just maybe Just maybe I hope beyond my dreams

I hunger for your hands Substituting what happens between them in living memory. The intimacy of being that close. Simplifying fragility. It's natural that they'd become curious. Roaming about until they themselves feel comfortable. That feeling in the center of your chest that makes you feel that you can do anything. In A place of this size. I long to be lost in the grasp of somewhere comfortable. To wake up and see you exposed in a calm hush Falling back asleep in complete comfort
