*who claims love has never captured you so recklessly, so blindly that you fear it- you, who dreams of me in slumber inking you in your sleep- i fear too. i pray for these fireworks to last more than tonight, more than this sliver of spring but just as it has barely found it's beginning i fear it's glowing embers have burnt into itself. out, into complete darkness, as if it hardly ever touched the sky, barely existing even as dreams- like those that remain fuzzy after a tumulus night of sleep darling, don't let us be a faded dream; don't let us fall like dust. remember what it was to light this earth, to tilt in blues and violets and gold- remember the heat and it's electricity, please, remember it the first time you knew it was love*

you,
*who claims love has never captured you so recklessly, so blindly that you fear it- you, who dreams of me in slumber inking you in your sleep- i fear too. i pray for these fireworks to last more than tonight, more than this sliver of spring but just as it has barely found it's beginning i fear it's glowing embers have burnt into itself. out, into complete darkness, as if it hardly ever touched the sky, barely existing even as dreams- like those that remain fuzzy after a tumulus night of sleep darling, don't let us be a faded dream; don't let us fall like dust. remember what it was to light this earth, to tilt in blues and violets and gold- remember the heat and it's electricity, please, remember it the first time you knew it was love*
