tonight we sit on the precipice of
something unholy.
no longer sharing food to know the taste of your mouth
baby, I need to know it first hand
need to taste the atoms that make up
your smile
god, no more words please.
never been good at patience
come here.
paint the stars with me, they miss you
there's no shame in this home
that we have created in each other
come here.
tonight, the stars have fell to the earth
but you've been here for years so
who fucking cares?
let the world crumble,
mine is looking at me with hooded eyes
desperation's a pretty shade on your face
you, you minx of the night
blowing sultry kisses
from the shadow's shadow
temptation's a door better left open;
I need you a devastating amount
and I want you even more.
as my hand slips down down
down
civilisations fall. you cry out.
each decibel i swallow down
lips pressed against each other
I swear I can see universes rise from nothing
I swear they're here for you
they say to breathe in your moans is a sin
to that, I guess I'll write down my confession
between your trembling thighs,
forgive me father,
for I am a dirty sinner
who refuses to repent
mouthing words of a prayer
with my fingers crossed.
I don't need to go to heaven to see it
it's in the reflection of your hazy eyes
right there in between each cell,
made in your image
together we have carved ourselves a haven
walls made of soft touches
and a ceiling made of
kiss me's
all breathless and laced with want,
I'm going to breathe my love into your lungs
in hopes that you'll unfurl
like a spool of silk
devotion is a heavy word I don't
utter lightly
can you feel my devotion for you?
I'll leave it's imprints on your skin
bite them down
shut me up, for once.
