For Angelbaby: Poems and Songs

[Ziggy and Angelbaby]

I Lay Beneath

I lay beneath an endless sky
Pretend to be a cloud
I love you, want you, need you, too
But don't say it aloud

I lay beneath a quiet blue
Pretend to be a rock
Secure and strong for you, I'd be
But it is only talk

I lay beneath the rest of me
Pretend to be a man
Without you, though, I'm incomplete
I've come to understand

I lay beneath the one I love
Pretend to be afraid
My arms tighten around my choice
The best I ever made
