beauty
i know you’re not awake
but god is the moon beautiful
and it reminded me of you
and that will never be a line because I don’t need them
and that will never be a line because who would think to kid?
i need you like i need a highway to wish on, and you need me like you need
a way out of here
and when i say that you are beautiful it is not because i think you’re
feminine
or because i want to
belittle you
it’s because you are a thing of beauty, and sometimes i just get caught up in looking at you
and when i call you cute
or
handsome
or
sexy
it’s not because i need
or want
to hear it back
it’s because sometimes i almost can’t hold it in
and that will never be a line because i don’t need them
and that will never be a line because who would think to kid?
right now you are dreaming of me
or maybe someone else, somewhere else
and right now you’re laying on a pillow and right now
i wish i was next to you
it is four in the morning and i am entering these words
into save slots in my cell phone
places usually reserved for drafts and memories
and maybe you’ll hear them
but maybe only if you’re listening
and that will never be a line because i don’t need them
and that will never be a line because who would think to kid?
and sweet god i love you
and i think you might be telling truth when you say
it back
and you don’t read much, and we don’t like all of the same music
but that’s okay
because i don’t game much, and we can still dance the same steps
and that will never be a line because i don’t need them
and that will never be a line because who would think to kid?
you are skin stretched across bones
ivory gold
a few features away from perfect
and when i look at you, i can see too much
but god the moon is so beautiful
and it made me think of you
and that will never be a line because i don’t need them
and that will never be a line because who would think to kid?
