you put the stars in the sky
with the sparkle in your eyes.

I just want to get you alone
because you're the closest
thing to home I've ever known.

I didn't mean to hurt you.
I was just trying to make myself whole again.
truthfully, I don't think I've been whole since I met you.
I'm sorry, I didn't think I'd hurt you.
But if I don't look out for myself, who will?

she has planets in her eyes
and dreams of unseen lands.
the tattoos across her body
a map of the places she’s been.
she could go anywhere,
but she longs to go to space.
she’ll do it with rainbow hair,
laughter in her heart,
and a smile on her face.

you and I weren’t made for hotel room suites,
for red carpet walks or night clubs so loud
that we can’t hear our heartbeats.
you and I were made for ****** apartments
and even crappier coffee, for slow walks
hand in hand through fast paced New York City.
we’ll see things from the ground up,
perhaps it’s better that way.
no matter what happens, I hope that you’ll stay.

no matter how far I stray
from you, I'll always know
that you'll be there waiting for me
when I come home.

don't be afraid
to take up my time, my dear
because everything's
better when you're here.
