Reckless

Comfort you rest beside my bed

Please clear my head.

It feels so long since you last lost
Each shred of sense I ever had.

When it takes me away,
Don't stir my love, you should not be awake.
It's far too late.

We're decorated, I'll confess,
But there's no need to look so helpless.
You're head to toe in vintage woe
Although, you act so young and reckless.

Just how can you call home
A seaside town that you barely know?
I'll never know.

There is no better way than to
Write how it ends before the start.
So we'll walk fractured, in tatters,
A quiet enactment of our future though we long for the past.
