“Good Night, Juliet (Do Not Speak Now)
Come run your soft hands
across my skin as I sleep
wake me with a kiss on my cheek
come lay your body down in my bed
look me in the eyes with that gaze I love
like you’re searching for something
buried deep deep deep underground
curl up close to me and pull up the sheets
sink into slumber as I sing with my stereo
the morning sun is peering in my window
trying to glimpse the angel I am with
yes I speak to that sun everyday and night
tell her how you play a Juliet to my Romeo
she is the beauty blessed to all in dawn and dusk
and she inquires how to equal your elegance
and I give her sad news that touching even the hem
of your dress is not possible in the least
now twist your face into that smile I gave you
and twirl your fingers through my hair
do not speak now
let me serenade you and provide a soundtrack
to the dream that I am a character in
just a figment of your sweet minds creation
pleading for you to never wake and kill me
but if things must come to my ultimate demise
with the reaper I would make one compromise
never let my love know pain and I would die a thousand times
all these thoughts pace around my head
while I am clenching you tight in my bed
and I kiss your head as I join you in sleep
hoping that in dreams we would meet
and I would see you walking down a velvet beach
wind pushing your hair all about your face
there I would finally sleep easy
ridding myself of this fucking insomnia
do not speak now
let me just say good night to you
good night, Juliet
goodnight…..
