The night of fireflies

Tell me your pain like some old bedtime story and I'll be a listener, dwelling on every word like a child. We'll lay side by side as we talk without minding the ticking clock, I'll hold you in my arms and keep you safe until you have said every thought and every word you have kept inside of you all this time. You can lay your head on my shoulder while I sing you sad songs that match the loneliness you endure.

For a night, your wounds will be mine to bear and your tears are mine to shed. Let me bleed for you, let me hurt for you because I know you're tired of breaking with no one to share the agony with.
