Reasons

The reason I want to know why you cry

Is to prevent what causes it.

Why I whisper

Is so our thoughts don’t split.

For every wish that I wish

You need to wish one less

For everything that I have done

I have done with you on my mind.

Every whisper of mine

Holds your essence in my breath

Every cut of mine that bleeds

Is a teardrop from your eyes.

Every fire that burns

Is simply another moment without you.
