I seem to forget the worth of the sun
I wish I could run fast enough to escape the blanket of night
if I could reach up to the seemingly boundless stretch of an absence of life
I would embrace the emptiness and fold night itself into a square
I could give it to you
maybe you see more good than I do
I wont do it
I don t want to breech the line between the sky s limit and heaven s descent
and now I can t run as fast as you choose to walk away
you ve put this heart on a thousand trials
only to be imprisoned again and again
watching the stars without you
my lungs cry out
just kiss me so the night can rest
let the night come so I can dream a dream for every golden-laced footprint you ve left in my mind
because I won t wipe these tears away
