2:05am
you lay in my bed
singing songs I fell in love to,
Do you feel us falling?
I can feel us falling,
oh,
it's all I can take
when my breath stops
in the middle of my throat
just looking at you
with a patch of sun
over your face
just as the morning has started
2:12am
I am lulled
by an artist
I've loved
since I was fourteen
watching your chest shake
to the sound of a man
who will long understand you
more than anyone else
I am in love with the idea
of happiness
sitting right in front of me
as I've begged for it
and chased it
for all these years
and I swear
the second I stopped looking
there you were
wrapped in elegance
and alcohol
and soaked in laughter
and every day since then
has been one grateful step
after another
waking up
legs woven together
your sleepy lips
finding their way to mine
2:19am
I am washed
in contented wonder
of luck
or fate
whatever
has placed me here
in these very moments
watching a beautiful being
exist in front of me
prevailing
in emphasis
2:26am
I am not afraid
or sorry,
I am overflowing
and irrefutable,
I am not afraid
to love you
so take me,
and all I have to give
2:39am
Drink up one more time
and I'll make you mine
I am running out of space
and words,
but god let there be more time
let there be time
for a thousand more things
because I am not finished
figuring this out,
I will not be finished
for a long time
with myself
or the solar system
of emotions
orbiting in my body
so let there be more time
I will never be finished
feeling like you put
the stars into the sky
one by one
just for me.
