Do your tears reach for the floor once they meet your gently sculpted bones, Or do they trickle down your cheeks and follow the leader down the rustic road they call your neck? Do they kiss your collarbones the way I one day dream to? Do you wipe them from their origin with your weathered fingers, Or do you wait until they are kidnapped by the clothing you've begged to keep your body warm? Do they ever leave your eyes at all, or do they hide behind your perfect crystals to share a space with that beautifully complicated mind of yours? Will I ever get the chance to see you wholly, Or get the chance to plant romance in your eyes. Will I get to allow the tears of joy to fall with grace, Or wipe the tears of sadness before they stain your skin? Will lie awake until tomorrow passes away, Or will I sleep through my hopeless romance just to see another day? --Ourfirstfarewell

Let Me Hold You Up
Do your tears reach for the floor once they meet your gently sculpted bones, Or do they trickle down your cheeks and follow the leader down the rustic road they call your neck? Do they kiss your collarbones the way I one day dream to? Do you wipe them from their origin with your weathered fingers, Or do you wait until they are kidnapped by the clothing you've begged to keep your body warm? Do they ever leave your eyes at all, or do they hide behind your perfect crystals to share a space with that beautifully complicated mind of yours? Will I ever get the chance to see you wholly, Or get the chance to plant romance in your eyes. Will I get to allow the tears of joy to fall with grace, Or wipe the tears of sadness before they stain your skin? Will lie awake until tomorrow passes away, Or will I sleep through my hopeless romance just to see another day? --Ourfirstfarewell
