I know that sometimes when the sound of your shallow breathing is the only disturbance in the silence of the night,
Your thoughts are not screaming but they're not quiet either
Because they're forced to remain still, hopelessly oppressed
You go outside and think
You don't scream, you don't cry, you don't stare, you just sit there and overthink
You lose track of time, you don't even know what your looking at, and your mind won't shut off, it's like your thoughts cannot be ignored or dismissed
On such restless nights, I wish I could be there by your side, to take your mind off of the things you might not want to think about
I wish we can just hold each other, closer than close, and just drown in each other's scent.
I wish I could play with your hair and put your mind at ease so you can just fall asleep in my arms
I wish I was beside you so we could laugh away the thoughts and laugh away the night.
I wish we could just fall asleep together, peacefully, lovely and restfully.
On such restless nights, I want you to know that I will always love you
