can we stay up late?

holding hands and bodies and hearts

our lips might brush, or maybe your hair will lightly fall across my shoulders as you rest

we'll be silent, alone and forgiving
filled with love and omniscience

that neither one of us would ever leave if we didn't have to.

blossom with me
grow into me

fill our space with timelessness
an endless reminder of our eternities,

we can be whole without sacrifice

we can be whole until the morning, when the light shines through our emptiness

you'll comfort my sorrows and kiss away my tears
we can be whole even as we build

because just like the night always falling
i will always come home to you.

stay up late with me
i need to taste your unadulterated soul

i'm afraid to never really liveWhere stories live. Discover now
