..by my side.


I awoke in a sweat, soaking wet and out of breath I rolled over to my left and found your chest. "I remember when" you said "you'd sleep so sound I'd fear you dead and in the morning when you'd raise your head I could sleep again." I never really knew all the things I'd put you through. If there was something I could do, know that I'd change a thing or two. You had these dreams for me, ones where you knew I would succeed and you were afraid I wouldn't need you by my side. I made a wish myself and I'm hoping that it helps. You can't be by yourself if you're by my side. So maybe you ought to lean on me sometimes I know it's weird but it's worth a try. If we fall we know we'll survive, you know this ain't our first time. We're familiar with that ride. But I swear something is new, it might be me, it's mostly you, and now there's nothing I won't do to get to you. But somethings never change and in this way I'm still the same I keep my affection of the page but you like it that way. I guess it's better if it's read because at least then you can pretend that you're not the reason I can't sleep; that you're not haunting all my dreams.
