I fall asleep and your color is the last thing I see,
for a moment I forget about how my scar is open
because I am mesmerized by the blood flow.
You talk over all my louder dreams,
they shout out until I’m awake or I’m numb
but they are quieter now
I’d rather hear your voice.
We meet stealing in between the minutes
Sometimes words are wasted
and the only way I can tell you who you are
is to let you breathe harder or easier.
You don’t need to tell me twice
to kiss away the distance,
I want to love every inch of you.
Even though it’s miles away
and I don’t know the territory well yet
my other home is in your arms.
