thoughts are overflowing in my mind
but my mouth is as empty as my heart feels here.
i have chased this like ive been starved to the bone,
now i'm touching the sky with my fingers, but i can only think of my home.
--
and ive never seen my heart skip beats like this before.
i think i've found my plague for sure.
--
youve pried open all of my wounds. i know you didn't mean to, but that doesnt make it hurt any less tonight.
youve revealed all of my scars and, you want all these explanations, how do i know i can tell you and keep you in sight?

--
don't sweat it, i always manage to pull through.
pain is something ive become used to
but never immune to. it never gets easier. no.
i love the way we sycnhronize.
just like your body is part of mine,
and i watch as we conjoin and intertwine.
--
the letters i wrote you, i stowed them away,
to the depths of a place you will never see,
this is so constant, so thorough, so strong.
this is why i, drawn to you.
