I don't want to say
I don't want to say you're all I need.
That I can't live without you.
That when we fall asleep
I match my inhale to yours.
I want to say that I exist on my own.
That I can stand
without your arms around me.
Because I know that one day
only half of
us
will be left.
And I want to believe that it will be ok.
