Jan 2012
the sun is going down again
in the backseat of your car, I'm watching it disappear behind the trees
frosted windows
your hands are like warm water over my cold and rigid bones
warmth
the sweet, growing smile that wakes me up every morning
I kiss it and feel myself begin to melt
sh...
the secret that I'm hiding inside the deepest place in my heart
you know, the one that changed my life
and that I'll keep so safe for you
because it makes me feel like I'm at home with you
even when I'm sick and shivering in the early morning darkness
the moment I feel your eyes on me
I have never ever been so happy

time makes me hurt
when I remember that so much of it has passed
please don't let go of me
please
when I'm with you, life is in slow motion and the lights and sounds fade like I'm in a dream
But I'm so awake
let's keep each other awake
so that time is never lost
I love you too much to lose a single moment
