i can't help but stay up at night
thinking about you.
about what we could be,
and what I wish we were.
but I know one day it will all stop.
everything I once believed
will cease to exist.
images of you will blur at the edges
and memories will burn away.
but until that happens,
will you promise to hold me back,
if I hold you first?
