I long for you in the morning
I long for you when I'm cold
I long for your feeling of peace and home .

I'm scared one day soon
The skies will come crashing down again
And this time it will be my fault.

I need you out of my head and in my bed

A fault line runs in me through and through
Awakening unexpectedly,
Tearing at me
Night and day.
It crackles in the skin of my hands
I hide it from everyone.
You changed that,
As we search for each other in the dark,
Our skin and hair
Here and there.
I slept with a soundtrack
Of your breaths,
Whispering to me
The calmness of assurance
What else could I need,
The cracks within me fell asleep,
And so did we.

Remember the way the leaves used to crumble between the spokes of our tires?
The exciting monotony of that broken pavement
The stories, the races,
and now,
Just the few paces
That separate us.
For our world is the same,
Yet so different from those years ago
Where life let our happiness flow.

This morning I fell awake
To dreams of you and I
Entangled together in the night opaque.
