i've never wanted attachment worse, it's just crazy tonight. i want to hold your hands, face to face when worlds collide. what is it? instant reaction? sudden troubled reflection? i don't understand it and i don't want that. understand, standing underwater when the planet's over, going under, everything's alright. the last mirage in the back of our minds will be the loss of anything worth time. what's worse? worst doesn't come first. and don't be sad, it's good. it's news after the matter is done and over. i look you in the eye, loving you more than life's worth, and for an eternity i'll do this. writing you to see how you feel, writing with letters and words, with carefully placed commas. i want connection to every star you've ever heard about. kissing for the comets, stopping to let our hearts out. a connection like the one between souls that comes before life and lasts after. that's love, made for each other, that's us, and it keeps us together. i'm convinced again and again. we'll share everything, you and i. everything i've said, ever since we met, a small cost for the rest of our lives.
