I want to hide quietly
beneath the shelter of your love...

What worries me the most
is if it makes you feel bad to see me scared...

I know I still have a long journey ahead,
longer than the span of the Earth...

Your heart is a house
that feels like a home...

It's a second too late
for me to beg you...

You've got me feeling nervous
of every text you send...

I wish I had kept my secrets to myself,
and never let you know the reasons...

A little at a time,
you gave me parts of you to keep...

Despite your every effort,
you just can't understand it...

If you are reading this
then I need for you to listen...

It's long past midnight
and I am wide awake...

I try to remind myself
that I've seen darker times...
