It was the beginning I had always wished for
I carried all those lights toward you
And softly, I shouted, “I love this.”

Colors poured from you in endless streams
I was amazed by everything I saw
And holding your hand, all I felt was warmth

I suffered so much while you watched me fall
I was breaking, all because I didn’t know

For everything I saw in you, Bruno
You were meant for me—in another world with an end

I kept running, only to fall again
Friends telling me how good it was
Yet I was the one who got to have you

When you were cold, I tried to be the sun
When you erased, I filled the space with imagination
Only to be abandoned where I first met you

For everything I saw in you, Bruno
You were meant for me—in another world with an end
Two hands that could never heal
I hope now you find yourself

And don’t think I abandoned you,
But I was dying without knowing,
A grave I was meant to belong to
All of them screaming at me,
And I was terrified of being the one to fail,
The chosen one to fall,
The right one to lose

Months of suffering, drowning in doubt,
No clues to tell me if I was ever truly there

How long did I suffer, being the wrong reflection?
Trying to erase mistakes when I was already making them

I was sacrificed for your weak conviction,
For a bit of doubt, for your confusion,
Now I wait in blood for what you made me lose
And I understand now how I could have been more,
How I won you over,
How I became so much more than loss

So, Bruno, have a lovely night
Surrounded by stars and that moon you love
