awaken.

as my eyes fell shut

and my mouth would close

i used to dream of days like this:

days that were endless

with you at my side

holding me closer

where i couldn't hide.

days become nights

as nights become days,

they all seem to bleed the same

one is another, as another is one

but you are my heart

and our hearts beat as one.

open your eyes,

i'm already here,

staring back

with nothing to fear.
