The trajectory of my heart meeting yours
Is like an airplane taking off in the middle of the night and not making any noise
I stay up and wish I don’t torpedo
But it's all wishful thinking and pipe dreams I can’t keep filling up notebooks with dreams I can’t quite hold onto
Your love is so quiet
Like the gentle footsteps of me trying to not wake you
And the gentle touching of my toes on your forearm
I crawl up and wish
Love always remains silent in your arms
I know you think I’m amazing but sometimes I lay in your arms and wonder if I didn’t dance that night
Maybe you’d be happier today
I pray one day
My love is quiet for you
Maybe it already is
I used to sit in the sun for hours
I don’t think I need to do that anymore
Your love glows warm in the night
The tunnel doesn’t end
But your love glows warm in the fight
It always will
Until my  heart crawls into itself
And I shrivel up like a dying rose
Just for you,
Always just for you
