I swallowed my thoughts revenge like the ocean swallows the ship we sailed in on.
I kept the light on each night waiting for your warm embrace that never came.
I often found myself amused with the idea of you falling off the edge of the earth and I remembered the earth was round and was truly disappointed.
The stars never betray me, the speak riddles only the Milky Way would understand but she is asleep.
I turned the light off finally realizing I would never smell your salty skin again.
Selfishly I awoke early to catch a glimpse of the Sun as he rose high above the clouds waking the sleepy night.
And I selfishly realized I wasn't selfish at all just because you decided the open road was the way to go; honestly I couldn't blame you when all I ever told you was my plans of escape.
The stars never lie to me; the tell me exactly what I need to know.
