i fall apart

 
you want beauty, I offer myself vulnerable
you want grace I can only give you my faith

I wonder about you, do you see my flaws?

my imperfections smiling at you
could you overlook my deviance
I don't follow the normal code

my heart breaks for you
I'm no longer pretty still, I draw them in
there is just something about me

there's something about you too
the two of us touching the others soul
in the quiet moments in between breathing and sighing

you pick my heart up on exhale
I whisper to your need
you understand my passion
bruised lips don't lie
hushed utterances under gritted teeth

fuck...

you push me away then pull me back
I don't know what you like about me
midnight smiles and says take it slow

my burn says I can't take it
you got me good
dark man, hard man
you appear so smooth

are you cold to the core
or do you burn also?
