she's out there, somewhere
but you can't be sure

in your arms
while you daydream

in the air you breathe;
intoxicating and elating

at your bedside,
keeping you up at night

it'll become too much

& you'll reach out
but you spend even more
time in your head
and you can't be too sure
of anything in this world

but you can be sure
she's out there

more than just a thing of dreams

she's out there, somewhere
alive with laughter

with a thirst for attention,
desperation in her demeanor

& a mouth full of midnight
