please, love.
my lungs can't hold the infinity you're breathing into them and my mind can't handle the weight of the dreams that we keep imagining.
but i can breathe in all your light your golden shimmer and let my feet lift off the ground. i can weave our dreams into stories, and let the words document everything that made us so beautiful.

my voice is only quiet and i can't scream your name from the top of a ice capped mountain and i don't have royalty running through my veins.
but i can whisper it in your ear while laying underneath white washed sheets. i can still rule your world your life your heart.

so, dear,
my lungs are weak, and my mind is uncontrollable. i don't like high places, and i'm a middle income commoner.
but;
we can catch our dreams in giant mason jars and let our lightening bug glow light up our world.
we can spend our days with the sunlight washing over us as we whisper love under blankets.

apart we're nothing amazing.
but together.
we could set this place ablaze.
Then you said, "wait for me we'll fly the wind,
we'll grow old and you'll be stronger without him" but oh,
now my world is at your feet. I was lost and I was found,
but I was alive and now I've drowned.
So now I will be waiting for the world to hear my song
so they can tell me I was wrong...

-- Missy Higgins
