Being with you, keeping me alive ____ AKSHR

 

Being with you, keeping me alive

 

Dreaming of you keeps me asleep.

Being with you keeps me alive

 

A crystal of moonlight

 

in your ear. I’m a river

glimpsed through the trees,

a meteor that shines

for a moment in your sight.

Being with you keeps me alive—

the way you’re quiet when you kiss.

I want to be with you so much, 

keep me alive.

The hours between us are bright as ice;

they crackle like fireflies in the dark.

I want to be with you so much,

 keep me alive.
