My half of the world was in darkness when your’s was in light,
A straight mass of land separated us,
The Earth understood and bent under me to where you reside.
So many people here, only one I needed,
Only you I wanted, your memory I got,
And the knowledge of half a planet’s distance,
Because that’s how far you are.

Like paper in wind my thoughts float around,
So easily I get lost in my head,
Yet you come bring me back to the ground,
Within your arms I shall always be found.

That you believe too, I see that world beginning to take shape.

We talked in silence,
We talked of memories,
Of how it felt when yours touched my skin,
We promised we would never fall apart,
Yet somehow,
The distances and spaces between grew to a whole life.

Today I looked up at the sun,
I smiled as if watching it for the first time,
I pointed at a crow and abused it.

I wanted to write about my bed,
Of how I wanted to sleep in it always,
All inspired I fell asleep instead.

Staring at the halo of passing lights,
Painting the walls I stare as I lay in bed,
It is not sleeplessness that keeps me awake,
It is the lack of your presence,
Like a child carefree in a mother's embrace,
Like a lover's comforting arms after a tiring day,
I thought tonight may be it would be nice,
To fall asleep with your arms around me,
So if I ever woke up in the middle of the night,
I could look up to find you beside me,
Lean in a little closer so you won't go,
Drift in to sleep without a thought for tomorrow.
It is kind of a happy thought, just no one I can write it to
