Felicity

Maybe I will want to replay memories with you,
amidst the static and the echoing distance
Just so I can trace myself back to those memories.
Will you be okay?
Will I be okay?

Can I lie on your chest,
Pretend I can hear your heart beat and close my eyes?
Hold you tight and smell your skin
Legs tangled with yours,
Head on your chest,
Pretend I can hear your heart beat and close my eyes?

Can I watch you laugh?
Your eyes closed,
Lips open.
Glow in my chest,
Pain with the shudder of my heart,
Pretend I can hear your heart beat in your laughter,
and close my eyes.

Close my eyes against the cold,
Counting days,
Counting months,
eternities
Make deals with the devil,
Sell my soul,
Close my eyes and hear your heart beat in your laughter.

Open my eyes and watch you laugh,
Listen the whole night as you laugh,
Head against chest,
Close my eyes,
Feel the tears behind lids,
Hear your heart beat.
