And as I cease to be the light
of your every night,
I would like to shine for you
one last time

I will shine my brightest,
I will be whole
just for you

I won't let the dark night
win against me tonight
All my hopes and dreams
for the two of us,
this one night couldn't suffice
but it's all I'm left with

Will you even notice me?
or are you all too occupied now
with another bright one
I guess it doesn't matter,
I guess it shouldn't matter now

I hope she keeps you company
and your nights never get too lonely
I hope she holds you tight
behind those blinding lights
the way I did

Are you as broken
As you have made of me?

You're so proud
Breaking all these fragile hearts around
But you're just as weak
As all the hearts you've caused to weep

I love you
And you'll never know
For I never say so

It's you
Residing in my thoughts
The reason behind
The ink being spilled
Into these papers

It's you
These words are
Pleading to stay
In between the lines
That I say

I shouldn't
But I need you
More than I thought
I should
And could

When you said
That you like to read
I immediately
Wanted to make you
A whole library

And maybe for you
I'd write even
The ones
I never thought
I would

I want you to kiss me
Good night
Not goodbye.

To feel your hands
In mine forever
Through all the sorrows
And not just for now
Until tomorrow

To not let the unspoken
Be left behind
As well as me.

Suddenly, your warm embrace
The sweet words you say
Your lips
And the promises you always keep

Are being missed
Funny how
I threw it all to waste

Soft kisses lingering
On my skin
Along with bruises
You never meant
To leave

I miss those things
And more
But towards you
I feel nothing

She was the Moon
And he claimed
To be the stars
Living around her

As dark as the night
They're up above
Sparkling their borrowed lights

Keeping each other company
While everything else
Gets too lonely

She may be whole tonight
But sooner she'll be
All torn into pieces

He may be a few now
But he'll be endless
Tomorrow

Never the same
Just like everything else

You won't see them
Come bright skies
But they're holding on together
Behind those blinding lights
