We were never childhood friends, living down the
country roads where we could have thrown stones...

I didn't even realize it had been a year
since you saw my raw heart, eaten alive...

...

I've grown weary
writing of you...

My alert heart is racing, beating fast,
Praying and hoping to not arrive last...

Escape,
breathing the anti-humid air...

I dreamed about
you in between the...

Don't ask me
why...

Rock me to sleep, you're thinking.
I see it in the way you curl like a lost...

I know you'll never find this,
and for that, I'm grateful...

Safety is security,
a promise you'll always be there...

Touring the city
at a quarter to eleven...
