my lullaby

into your smile
I fell on through
out of my skin
inside of you
I breathed your air
tasted your scent
you melted my world
and taught me
the difference between love
and openness

it’s how I felt
and now
how I hurt
as I sacrificed my soul
for mere moments with you

my constant broken heart reminds me
of the fragility of being human
i am still in love
though if you asked
my mouth would lie
because the heaviness hasn't left me
and my every thought betrays me
as they go where you do

my lullaby
is over
