We held each other with great desperation,
our long nights,
Such sweet meaningless words,
the comforting warmth between our bodies.
But your heart is not mines to take,
I want to scream at myself for being a fool.
The only reason we hold each other is not from love,
but rather the gnawing fear of being alone.
But let this sweet moment last,
because without you,
my heart will be smashed.
