Stay Up With Me

I also posted this on another blog I'm doing with a friend, when we start posting more, I'll share the address :D


Stay up and hear how nothing sounds,
It's written in the lines of pencil scratches and paper crumpling,
Ideas can be sorted through faster than a box of trash on Storage Wars,
and we can sift the dirt from our piles of gold,
just to hear how this nothing sounds.
It's worth the ounce of precious metal found in the same pan as you cooked dinner that one time in a hotel room,
Burnt bacon has never tasted so bad before.

Stay up with me lover,
and hear the sound of my breathe fading away,
of sentences getting shorter,
And words somehow finding a way to ground themselves to your mind more than any other memory.

Stay up with me as I reread all of your texts,
I miss when we said I love you at 4 am.

Stay up with me,
And read all the things I never said.
Like,
 I love the way your head fits on my shoulder,
and the way my hand gets hot when I want to hold your hand.

It's like the lack of sleep let us ignore a lot.

Stay up with me lover,
Your company is appreciated.
When I'm alone I get sad.

I don't like being sad.
