Blanket of Stars

I want my love to be As painful to you as it is to me I do not want pretty lies I want raw honesty To know what keeps you up at night What you dream of in the day The longing when you touch me And the fear when I’m away With eyes that …

Disappear with me

I want a red bottle of wine For this forever broken heart So I can fill it temporarily A quick fix, but it’s a start Some wounds never heal Some scars never fade Some never see the light And choose to stay in the shade So come find me if you dare Trade your sunshine …
