Talk Me Down

I want to sleep next to you
But that's all I want to do right now
And I want to come home to you
But home is just a room doll of my safest sounds
'Cause you know that I can't trust myself with my 3 am shadow
I'd rather build a fantasy than deal with this alone

The young male wondered the streets looking down, not having a destination in mind. He felt as if the whole world was crashing down on him and there was nothing thing he could do to slow it down. He felt crushed under the cruelty of life.

Looking at his shadow he sighed. He mumbled, telling it to fuck off. The boy sighed and closed his eyes, dreaming that he was on a different place. That he was dancing on clouds with no one to bother him and nothing to feel besides happiness

Suddenly he stopped and looked up. Maybe he did have somewhere in mind. Bending down he  grabbed the spare key and opened the door. Pushing the door open he walked in and took his shoes off. As he walked down the silent hallway he drug his fingers against the walls.

I wanna sleep next to you
But's that's all I want to do right now
So come over now and talk me down

Zion entered the bedroom silently and closed the door. He sat on the empty side of the bed and brought his knees to his chest. He already felt small so he thought why not be small. He looked over at the body next to him before laying next it quietly. Reaching a hand out he brushed some hair out his face.

I wanna hold hands with you
But that's all I want to do right now
And I want to get close to you
'Cause your hands and lips still know their way around
And I know I like to draw the line at night, and starts to get surreal
But the less time that I spend with you the less you need to heal

Alec's eyes opened slowly and looked at the man in his bed. The green orbs seemed to smile as he took the other's hand in his and kissed it softly

Pulling Zion closer, Alec locking their lips in a sweet kiss. Once he lover began to kiss back he tried to deepen the kiss. Letting go of the hand he wrapped his arms around his waist, one slipping under the shirt slightly.

The smaller blue eyed male pulled away soon after. Looking away, he removed the hands from his body. His partner was immediately concerned with his behavior. Stoping the kiss was usual but he had never fully removed his touch. Though he tried he did not do a good job hiding the pain in his eyes when his lover explained that there was noting for him here on the earth. That all the earth gave him was  pressure and numbness.

I wanna sleep next to you
It that's all I want to do right now
So come over now and talk me down
(Talk me down)

Sighing Zion got out the bed and walked away. Why had he come here in the first place. Going through the attic he sat on the roof quietly. Just like he did when he sat on the bed he brought he knees to his chest. He took a deep breath which could be seen in the cold winter air.

If you don't mind, I'll walk that line
Stuck on the bridge between us
Gray areas and expectations
But I'm not the one if we're honest, yeah
But I wanna sleep next to you
And I wanna come home to you
I wanna hold hands with you
I wanna be close to you

The 28 year old went on the roof to find his lover missing. Looking across the way he saw him on the other roof. In desperation he called his name. The boy looked at him and blinked. Moving, he jumped on the wooden pole before climbing up and standing on the electrical wired that ran between and above the two house.

The 16 year old smiled slightly and continued to walk forward before stopping in the middle. Hey waved to the man, struggling to stay balanced. It was a shock that the wire hadn't collapsed underneath him. Reaching his hand out he took another step closer

But I wanna sleep next to you
And that's all I want to do right now
And I wanna come home to you
But home is just a room full of my safest sounds
So come over now and talk me down
(Talk me down)

Zion blew Alec a kiss, "I love you." With that he jumped off and plummeted to the ground. Alec cried out and dropped to his knees. "I love you too." A tear fell from his eye as he looked down
