Save your kiss, grant a wish

I want to text you at 11.11 every day.

I want to visit our little boy and cuddle him together.

I want 3 hour phone calls.

I want to hang out and take silly photos, then take sweet ones.

I want to have film nights.

I want to cuddle until we fall asleep, and wake up again.

I want to sit surrounded by candles and drink wine until everything is funny.

Cos in this world full of fucked up romances, no-one does it better. We dance together under starlit skies when everything caves in on us. Then it's back to our lives.

Being this way means having happiness in 3 hour doses, then being hollowed out once again. But I'll never want it any other way. Because I'm never so alive as when I miss you. Except when I kiss you.

I made this for myself. We don't need each other any more. Life could go on forever this way, and everything would work out fine. But sometimes, some mornings, when the sunlight hits just right, and the breeze blows through the window over waking skin, and the bed feels just that little bit empty, something will always be missing.

I don't want love. I burned it alive. I can't make it come back no matter how hard I try.

I want you to need me. I want to be your shoulder. I want to be that voice on the other end of the line that tells you it'll all be fine.

Because we know we'll never be happy together, we'll never have the love we had.

Ex lovers till the end, better off as friends.

Let me play my part
Together we'll mend your heart.
