Pay no mind
To your thoughts tonight
Even though
They will pound inside your skull.
Try not to notice
The uneven breaths you take
Because your fears are taking hold
Of your lungs
And tightening their grip by the minute.
I know it hurts, darling..
I know it hurts.
I do this almost every night.
Just turn out your lights
And listen to the silence
And try to picture me there
Telling you
That everything will certainly be okay
As long as we're together.
