heal for you

i want you close enough
and near enough
so that it's unclear
where you end
and I begin

your sleepy eyes
and bitten mouth
all over my
eager skin

you don't have to say
all the words
you left
unsaid

just climb with me
into the dreamy
promise
of my bed

i don't expect
you to fix us
i don't mean to start
a fight

but i believe
in you and i
and that we
can make this right

the night is long
and dark
and gets colder
by the breeze

there's not much time
and if you stay,
i'd like to
tell you, please

that i bled for you
and you have scars
that much
we know is true

but i cut myself
and now i'd really
just like to
heal for you.
