midnight air

half past one, you weren’t in my arms

half naked, i was finding your warmth

half a heart, you said you are when I leave

halfway from the truth, still I believed.

downstairs, outside, in the middle of nowhere

i went and found you there, midnight air

no more step please stop right there

it’s cold, here’s my body you can wear.

i won’t leave so you can live

breathe through me, have coffee, have me

press yourself to me as if you mean it

just this time, i know you will.

lie with me, lie to me but I don’t mind

i’ll watch you get your clothes after midnight

you must be tired to keep on coming back

my door’s open i leave it unlocked.
