7:00am wants to open her eyes, but i can't open mine. My mind is a time capsule that's still stuck in yesterday. Flying into the unknown on rickety rails, whispered promises held together by the aftermath of love(lust), and the way you looked just humming to that song you never liked. Lie me down baby and take all that i can give. Let your pulse race faster.higher.stronger.
Are you ready?
Heart beating gently against my cheek. And medically speaking you're adorable, but that doesn't make you mine. Tell me all the things you'll know i need to hear to build my self esteem[my maturity]. Did you ever wish I was some one else baby? Some one who took your breath away. Maybe even her. I don't want to remember this.Goodbyes were never easy, but baby, when you stroke my cheek, they're unbearable.
Why are you so camera shy?
Time runs backwards and I soar towards yesterday, already remembering the way your lips felt on mine. Soon baby, soon. Whisper my name sweetie. Because when you're in love, no one can hear you scream.
