He was always there waiting—
for nights when she needed to run away from;
for nights she wanted to run away with.

How do you wait?
(frustrated, tired, annoyed)
(a bubble, safe haven, nomadic)

Why do you wait?
(because the world seems to drown you in thorns,
so I want to shower you in pearls)

because feelings are first

and maybe that has to only be when the world sleeps.
