The space between your words

Make a sound only I can hear

The space between our worlds

Grows smaller every year

Love, please don’t go and lose

Your love for me

I’m not worried you may cheat;

I know you aren’t concerned about my own loyalty

I’m more scared about what could happen after today

What if tomorrow you don’t lean in

And instead, you walk away?

What if overnight your feelings change

And when the sun comes up, you no longer choose to stay?

What if in a dream it comes to you,

That you don’t want to be with me?

Don’t wrap my heart in vines, love

Don’t leave me alone here with my thoughts
