Together Apart
Sometimes you make me wonder
What is the truth laying between your lines
You say things to take me off gaurd
I'm not sure if I should like what I am hearing .
When your words come so straight
I know exactly what to do
But when they come in that certain slant
I bite my lip , shut my eyes
Praying you don't mean what I want you to
All in jest , not to be taken out of context
It's just , sometimes , I wish we could .
Many nights have I fallen
asleep with thoughts of you
Many suns have I risen
with your name upon my lips
Just once , I want to know your arms , to know the warmth
of your body
To entangle my fingers within your fire , to touch you
and know
I'm no longer dreaming
How many pieces have been given
Unbound and unrestricted
How many bitters have we tasted
Together apart
The stories we could tell would fill
these unwritten pages
Yet we keep each other's trust - holding sacred
Together apart
