Night Brings Fear

I lay with my arms wrapped around you
My head resting on your chest
And I pull it in tight
Willing my own pulse to stop racing
To slow down and to match the one beating through your chest to me
I fall asleep each night upset and stressed that I can never make our hearts sync up
Terrified that our lives will beat on in different directions
That tomorrow is the day we wake up and look at each other
And realize we've come too far apart
I fall asleep with all those worries and more
And I sleep
And I wake up to my heart beating slowly
And your heart beating in sync with mine
And I remember that everything will be okay
