i'm laying on my bed,
my broken bed,
with its blue sheets and white comforter.
the few throw pillows and my teddy bear.

i'm staring off and getting lost in my thoughts,
i got this new light and it projects the galaxy onto your ceiling.

you always told me how much you loved space,
you loved it.
you would go on rants about stars and such and all that,
i loved it.

you told me you wanted to go see the northern lights someday and i had said;
"i don't know, it'd be cold. i don't like the cold all that much."
but now?
fuck it.
lets go see the northern lights my love,
i'll freeze to see you happy.
