Breathe by Anna Nalik inspired this one.


Awake

She calls me cos I'm still awake
She knows me too well

I calm her fears
I lay her in a safer bed
A safer dream

'Breathe, just breathe'
Silent waves of comfort freeze her
Sinking deeper into her numb bones

And as she gives up to moonlight
I stare into space for a few more hours
Pleading for the comfort I just gave away.
