I spent the night at your house
but we didn't have sex.
We fell asleep holding hands
but woke up back to back.
I hallucinated a girl was crawling
through the window.
I dreamt something smoky
and just out of reach.1
I woke up face to face
with the one person
who can read me like a book.
I felt as if you'd been studying
my facial expressions as I slept.
Learning the language behind
all my little nuances.
A creased brow means what exactly...2
I don't understand my emotions
anymore than you do.
Clinging to a chiseled wall isn't going
to make the night evaporate
or explain itself.
I spent the night in your world
but slept so long I didn't know
how to wake up.3
I spent the night with you
but we didn't have sex.
We fell asleep holding hands
but woke up back to back.
I hallucinated we did
what we said we wouldn't.
Would I like you the same
once you had all of me?
