Learning to love

There's no escape
the curtains closing
You've been laying there
Unhinged
Hopeless
Preserved
Lifeless
3 weeks to this night

This romantic light
glares across your lips
as you dance atop
your porcelain altar
Burning flicker
Helps move our time together
We gently sway
Sharing
The darkness

How long will our forever last
I styled your hair
just for me
On this occasion
I warm your body
On this occasion
we can indulge again tomorrow

Just like tonight

Indulge tomorrow...
