When I close my eyes
I see the sun peeking through the window blinds.
It was jealous of the lonely conversations we would have until the moon came out.
That was a long time ago.
I remember when you ran away just to prove a point.
Jut to prove to yourself that you were all grown up
And only nights before I promise you riches
And you promised me gold.
But that was a long time ago.
Since you you've been gone all I can seem to do is make the tired legs keep on walking.
Make these tired hands keep on working.
So I never have time to sleep.
So I won't dream about when you promised me wishes
And I promised you dreams
But I fell through the seems.
That was only yesterday.
Only yesterday.
Now on these sleepless nights I wonder if those promises still mean anything to you.
If you still hold onto them like I do.
Or was I just making something out if nothing.
Like we did back then.
Pulling wishes from the sky, we placed them in each other's ribs because somehow we knew we'd keep them safe there.
I still have mine.
Wherever you are do you?
