You only love me at night
In the spaces between the stars
In the darkness that knows no depthsI look out at the sun
Wondering during the day
Asking myself where you could beAnd the only answer I have
Is that
I only exist to you at nightWhen the monsters go to sleep
And the quietness that separates everything
Is broken apart by our words
Bouncing and stingingNo one to judge us
Or to ask how it is
Our own opinions run free
In the forgotten landI am held to no standard
Besides what the darkness holds on me
Which is nothing
As she does not judgeI wish you loved me in the day
But I can understand
That you may be afraid of our flaws
Peaking out into the openBe even so
I will love you in the day
And let you love me in the dark
