I Hope You

I hope one day you can drive home without my jacket being left in your passenger seat, I hope you can drive home, take a shower and wash every memory of me far from your skin. I always talk about how I want to find commitment without a risk involved, but for you I'd throw every penny I have in and bet on every night we have left that I would care for you enough to ask you to stay. I don't want to care so I don't. You wander in and out of my thoughts, unyielding and racing throughout,I wonder when I'll get some sleep, I wonder when I'll cry without your reflection in my tear stained face. I don't want to care, but I'll all ever do is that.
I don't want to call you a "What if" or a "Never was" I want to live inside your brain and loop my way through your senses. I want to travel and do all the things I've been scared to admit that I want. There's moments when we're driving home and your eyes drift from the road to look at me and I want to lean over and kiss you, because nothing would feel as godlike as wrapping our car around a telephone pole just to show you how I feel. The moments where you're laughing at me and you squint and your eyes shimmer and you seem so light and far away, but yet we are so close. I don't know where I'm going but I want you to be the point B. I want you as every insult, every answer, and every tear in my heart
