The story of us

And your name s i n k s
into my skin--its ice on a furnace
hot, hot, hot like your lips on mine

searing those promises
deep into my b o n e s
stealing away every breath of mine

with you,
i don't need air.

Taken.

his lips promise spring

and he tastes dewdrops--

dwelling in love petals

budding like roses

flowering in its simplicity

i n n o c e n t

no more.

I think i'm going mad.

You. You. You.
You. You. You. You. You.
You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You.
You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You.
You. You. You. You. You. You. You. You.
You. You. You. You. You.
You. You. You.
You.
Me.

Forever.

Desire.

and with a flutter of lashes

she set his heart on fire

and he burnt like a moth crashing into the flame

and you will never know

because I will never tell

and for all downcast eyes

demure from sinful lies

hides a girl broken

ripped ap--art by you

and you will never know.

3AM

And she tells me to write between the lines

to confine myself between barriers

broken down into words

not slanted, but p e r f e c t

i'm tired of being perfect.

Wash me away.

there are meteor showers in your eyes

and i'm a desert around you

drinking in your oceans

but the tide is low and you're gravitating

towards the eclipsing moon

 [ maybe i am crazy and maybe you don't know

and maybe you will never but you need to know

that i need you ]

so don't go

pleasepleaseplease

i fucking need you

here
