I envy how the star's twinkle reflects in your eyes
And how it disappears in between your sighs
With your head perched on my thighs

We gazed at the only scenery that swallowed your lies
And for a moment I allowed the rise and fall of your breathing
To sing lullabies to my fears
And the dark hid the trail of my tears

Because I realized
That as serene as the night might be
The sun will rise eventually
And we will be just as we were
Little broken souls holding on to each other
For dear life

Because although the comfort
That the arms you put around me
Did not guarantee me the title of your wife
At least I would be in your life
Holding on to your soul like a crutch
