When you dreamed,
Why were you screaming
The way that you seemed,
It was quite chilling
I covered you up,
Shook you hard
You did not wake up
I rang the alarm
Then, you got mad
Said you were fine
Whatever we had,
I knew we bent the line
You didn't accept my apology
You were too chivalrous
Your joy was like ecstasy
Every smile made me nervous
I loved you in the light
In a room, in tense silence,
Every conversation a delight
One glance worth the distance
You were unsure
Yet, you shone with confidence
The little you endured,
Gave yourself some prominence
If only your joy was real
Then I would have been found,
For my joy was an ordeal,
To a black hole it was bound
