19/F here lies the aching words of a lover & night dweller.
my soul is drenched from the storms he causes within me; his hands, his laugh, and his words are pulling me in like they’re sirens, lord, keep me at bay, for i want to drown in his ocean trench.

siren’s call
maybe one day i won't get so scared that i might fall for you again every time i see you after so long. maybe all i'll see in you is the ghost of that love that i've generously gave you; all the feelings i had buried six feet under; and my love letters left on the surface like a gravestone with every beautiful word i ever wrote for you engraved on it; the last tangible proof of what existed and is long gone from the confines of my soul. oh how i would mourn for what i have lost, oh how i would be stronger by then to be able to see you again without my longing, to be able to smile at the boy who murdered my heart.

death by love
i imagine kissing him would taste like his vanilla tobacco and whiskey; he would taste just like sin. maybe thats why i find myself drowning in my liquor as i start to wish my head was spinning from the gentle graze of his lips instead, not from this cherry-flavored poison I have in hand. you're the poison that i want and not having you will still **** me.

my sin, my soul
like your cigarette, baby hold me between your lips, love me longer than it burns out, keep me lingering in your thoughts the same way you're stuck on your bad habits. we're all addicted to what kills us, and your poison tastes just like whiskey cola to my soul.

bad habits
I think of you on my bed, my secrets hidden in these creases; love letters left unsent. My body craves for you on my sheets. Your image lingers in my head; eyes on me, desire increases; lip bite, electric current. Baby, loving someone else is a feat. I try sleeping instead, the memory never ceases, the longing I cannot prevent. Fill up this space beside me, make this lonesome soul complete.

the space beside me
Furtive looks, subtle touch; confess to me first that you can't get enough. Somber voice, gentle smile; he's sat so close, let this rush last a while. Late nights, inspired minds; his words are intoxicating, a sensation my heart divined. Other girl, better plans; along with the high comes a greater crash. I had fallen too quick, a dream then a whiplash.

love's drug
You're my kaleidoscope free fall; my fleeting moment of a dream. You're a love so detrimental, I'm the petrified deer drawn to your headlight gleam.

the danger in your enchantment
You smell of what you smoke, I breathe you in deeply enough it makes me float. His head in exhaled clouds; slipped into reverie of me; ensnared and spellbound. Puffed into a trance; vaporized reality; my face caressed by his hands. Baby let me course through you like your almond tobacco --sensation you never knew.

Billowing Paradise
She was a celestial being. Her ethereal form, illuminating the darkest of oceans. Amidst the stars, and the nightly gloom, she remains the brightest 'Till the sun looms.

moon
Wrap me in your arms, tell me you're here to stay. Let me feel your warmth, as our fingers stray. Let our lips touch, smile as they part, and meet once more.
