My memories told me

In a dream once

That you've spent a quiet night in our past

A past still bleeding with questions

The answers too often ignored

 my torture.



I let the stars 

Witness the honesty

I am true to the lie

That I'll never be 

I'll take a breath

To breathe you into me

I won't ever let it go

‘til you come back to me



I lied when you asked me what I wanted

A fateful blow to my own heart

I didn't know 

A tap on the shoulder just a shadow

Delusions far too much to bear upon you



I let the stars 

Witness the honesty

I am true to the lie

That I'll never be 

I'll take a breath

To breathe you into me

I won't ever let it go

‘til you come back to me
