Let’s not talk
Talk is cheap
Talk is weak.
Let’s just lay here
Here is quiet
Here is safe.
Let’s hold on to one another
We’re changing
We’re inconsistent.
Let’s not overthink
Overthinking ruins everything
Overthinking is bad for the soul of everyone.
Let’s just promise to hold on for as long as possible
Because when we let go, we’ll have given up
Because when we let go, we’ll have said all there is to say.
Let’s not promise forever
Because forever is a lie
Because forever will die.
Let’s just hold on to one another
Because I am yours
Because you are mine.
So let’s just lay here
Here is now
Here is us.
Let’s not talk
Talk can’t describe how we’re feeling
Talk will only lead to another heart in need of healing.
