El's Book - Erio

I couldn’t sleep

Last night for I read

The book you wrote

With honest skill

It’s like you could write

My own despair

Put down my story

Thinking it’s yours

The plot was simple

Yet so uncommon

Feelings of sympathy

Have tied a knot

A knot that links

This muscle that beats

Inside this boy’s chest

To printed words, to printed words

I cannot sleep

Tonight 'cause I lie

In your bed

While you sleep

And in your bed

It’s he the one

Who should be lying

Where I am

And if we’ll spoon

I’ll lie behind you

‘Cause I’m the one that needs

To hold you at night

On this mattress you’ve been in love

Maybe yesterday

You changed the sheets

Hid his shirts

In Cambodia

You two will make love

You’ll be his then

That will make me yours, more, more
