Closer

In the dark of the night, he is there

I curl my fingers into his

Terrified, I feel my chest beating faster and faster

But, he is there

 

I toss, I turn, I scream, I cry

The nightmares, they plague me

But, when I wake, he is there

Beautiful boyfriend of mine

 

At 3am, 4am, 5am... he is there

He pulls me closer, closer, so close

We couldn’t be closer

This, finally, is my silver lining
