Denim

I wonder where you are
 A place beneath the stars
 Captivated by everything so far
 I wonder who you'll meet
 With every crooked street
 Missing all of home, but not the heat
 Can you calm your nerves
 When day turns to darkness?
 Can you sleep alone
 With the space that's between us?
 Can you hold the tears
 When it hits you in the peace of the night?
 Wishing for the calming swirl of past respite
 I wonder who you'll be
 At the age of twenty-three
 The cosmos is waiting patiently
 I wonder where you'll go
 When the answer still is no
 Embracing this burgeoning woe
 Can you calm your nerves
 When the day turns to darkness?
 Can you sleep alone
 With the space that's between us?
 Can you hold the tears
 When it hits you in the peace of the night?
 What is love without the fight?
