The day we met
I had a brand new heartbeat, twisting
Its way through my chest
Humming like a silhouette in the dark
You sat in a chair
And held my tiny body, rocking
And it’s hard to send
My aching mind back after what came and went
I’m not alone
The day my parents moved
You took me over to Indiana
We went to the mall
I rode a paper airplane inside
The motion simulator
Breaking my back, a fiery death
And when we got out
You held me close, I was shaking, I know it
I’m not alone
You were never broken up
Or less than whole, you’re powerful
But, I’m not the one to tell you this
I know, you’ve told yourself
I’ll do what I can
To make this all go away faster
But, you are the one
Who tells me not to call you when I try to say
You’re not alone
I’m not alone
