im waking up beside your heart

you feel warm to the touch

i breathe you in



i fight the urge to blink

for fear that you might disappear

alone in my head



you whisper in my ear

and i tingle from the neck down

"i want you"



that's all you say

that's all you've ever said

tell me..

when does "i love you" come in?



i've loved you

i love you

i will love you



but you're not really there

fantastical is this fantasy of false addiction

when instead you feed my affliction



you're killing me slowly

and all i can do is gasp

for the air that will never come



so please, just let me go

release me from my delusions

and i will be set free
