Night Air

In the darkness, half asleep 
How my thoughts do stray 
Passed memories and fantasies 
Through all the things that weigh 

Brush them aside with just a breath -
Scatter them beneath my bed
To sink into the carpet
And right out of my head 

I'll fill back up with night air
And the softness on my skin
The twinkling of stars 
And the world's unending spin 

Filling with every breath -
Every exhale filling you
We'll empty out of daylight
Keeping only what is true

In the morning, half awake
How the world does sway
I'll gather all of my thoughts
And fill once more with day
