I tried to wake you (It was just to say goodbye)

I tried to wake you (It was just to say goodbye)

Thought that it was fair to let you know


You just turned away

Murmured through sleep
That in your dreams

In your dreams I never leave


There is nothing so arresting

As you settled in my outline


The nightlight reveals traces of my thumbs

Soft like the imprints of the ghosts

You keep hidden in your head

All bruises wear away in time
