A Heart Broken Before It Could Beat

Will you wait for me while the lights are off?

For I fear the dark,

scared that love will rip me apart,

and I'll look like modern art.

I can't see you,

but I'm no fool,

I feel your hand on my chest,

wishing I could connect,

but the room swallows with regret,

for the lights are off,

and I fear the dark,

I can't see the stitches,

of my shattered heart.

So will you stay?

Sit with me and pray,

for the sun,

let's wait till the world comes undone,

it'll be so much fun,

just please, don't leave me in the dark,

or I'll be lost, a broken spark.
