Your bitter words have left your tales unsung for far too long

And you would be but a shadow in the night if your eyes didn’t burn so bright

Let me wash the blood off your hands and bandage your wounds

Any form of death would be coming too soon

I’d rather be deaf dumb and blind than have to attend your funeral

Your voice is musical and the words you spin are ethereal

Please don’t ever leave me behind

I want to be there when you’re weeping to dry those pretty eyes

And help you so you don’t down another shot of vodka or...

You are the first person that has inspired me to write about sex, gentle words from the flame in my stomach

I hide myself in baggy clothes and pajama pants, no makeup, but my mind burns bright like the stars in your sky

I wish I could just write you into my life forever, but life is not a novel, and I am not its author

So dance with me tonight, the light in your eyes is bright, shining like a polished marble in a lake of sun

Spin me around until the break of dawn comes, you in your tuxedo and I in my ball gown that twirls out at my feet

There are a...

I think of you, and I think of sex

Your hands wrapped around my waist

Your face in the crook of my neck

Kissing me gently

I turn around in your arms and press my lips to yours

The breath of our souls intermingling

In a complex ballet of hearts

I want you next to me

I want to sit on the couch with you and watch Suits, your hand on my thigh

Your dancing laughter circling around our heads

My head on your shoulder, fitting perfectly.

I think of you, and I think of time

That I want to spend...

I want your hands on me

I want to breathe under you

Euphoria coursing through our veins

Letting us know we are alive

I want your hands on me

Skimming over me, touching me

In the most intimate and gentle of ways

I want to press my lips to yours and feel our breath mingle

I want you to grip my hips as you slide into me

Whispering sweet somethings in my ear as tears roll down my cheeks as you break through my innocence

I want you to look at me as if I am beautiful, the most beautiful girl in this world of...

I can hear you in my sobs that rattle the glasses on my face

I can feel you as I breathe in the ocean

My lungs protesting as fish nibble at their edges.

I can contain my love for you.

Into neat little post it labeled jars

I pour my adoration for your soul.

I can hang my veins on the coat racket on the inside of your door

Spread my liver and kidneys on the floor

Unwind my intestines and while I’m at it, here’s my heart and mind and soul, too.

Better give you all of me just for good measure

Do with me what...
