Shelter

My body is a shelter for an animal
and if you never leave me, I will stay your wrecking ball
and I will be so quiet when you're asleep
though I will stay wide awake

So let my heart be your shelter
I will confine you and keep you safe
but maybe we were wrong
to think we'd stay in love
unlike our grandparents who sleep states apart.

I need a pill to sleep
'cause my mind won't let me
I'm afraid that I still need you

My bones are brittle, dear
so will you walk me home?
I'm afraid that I still need you

But maybe we were wrong
to think we'd stay in love
unlike our grandparents who sleep states apart
