And suddenly all my moments scream your name
But you feel no need to open ear
There was so many beautiful things I noticed before I knew you
Like gentle floating lights on each house's rooftop at night
But now I only imagine you underneath them
Or clean white sheets after a long day of being unmade or unrested in
Now I only imagine you tangled in
them
I swear I've never felt so much
Because no one is like you but everyone is
You're all my foolish little mind can see in all the beautiful faces

Love is respect and I respect everyone I meet
It's then you're responsibility to let it fall or let it keep

I guess I just expected you to care a lot more than you did
#oh

Why is it that I can't connect to anything
Why is it that I can hear my lungs pumping in my head
What made me numb to every bit of interest in anything that looks me in the eye

I long only for a rock in the sky

You're barely a stranger yet you hold every part of my emotions I wasn't even sure still existed

I walked toward the piano
And ran my fingers on its keys
He looked at me with wonder
Raised his eyebrow
Squinched his cheeks
I smiled and awnsered
"its my only escape"
"Can I be your escape" he whispered too quickly to be thought over
I couldn't figure out if he meant it or just felt it in his throat
But I took a breath, thought little thoughts and
"Sure"
I replied
With some sort of absance of the emptiness inside
Based on a true story

Why is it in movies
The characters are so real
So specific
But in reality people aren't even sure who or what they are
We're all in between
Living to slowly create some sort of something we can tolerate calling ourselves
