you're asleep and i'm sad
wanted to stay up all night
and talk with you
about your day
and why the sky is blue
everything is so easy with us
our words flow back and forth steadily
like the gliding of a ship
atop a calm sea
when i feel broken
you mend me with your words
when i have nothing to say
you effortlessly occupy the silence
you fill this gap inside me
in a way that makes me forget
i was ever incomplete
i'd tell you all of this,
but you're asleep
