Up until my insomnia meets me
I lied when I said I forgot
I was scared what you'd think
If I said that I love you a lot
People have only cared for minutes
Leaving me to care for days
When I look at you all I can think
Is please don't go away
I can see me in your eyes
I dream of dreaming with you
I can trace your scars with mine
My thoughts are bleeding through:
My Talia, I know what it's like to not be seen;
what it's like to be alone in a crowded room.
For you, my star, I want you to know:
that no one shines as bright as you.
I can taste you moving on my skin.
My gasp is air you sustain.
hand in hand, under an umbrella
with you, I am safe.
