You're my tap which has no label.
I have never been a gambling man but I want to wash in your sweet water.
It's often that I become so desperate for your touch that I take the chance.

Sometimes the water is so cold that I feel numb inside.
And other times it is so hot that I can feel my blood boiling.
But sometimes. Just sometimes.
It is the perfect temperature and it sends a fuzzy feeling dancing through my bones.

It's the chance that when I turn to you, you'll give me that feeling again. It keeps me coming back to gamble once more.

They say that laughter is medicine,

I always believed it to mean that my own laughter would heal me.
I found out recently that I was wrong, it's you. You and your laugh that truly makes me feel better.

Maybe if we put our broken hearts together, we could make a full one.

           Love                                  is                      
wr­itten                    in                    stone
       which                                slowly
             fades                          to
                   sand                   ..                                          
                    ­     ..                 ..

Walking home at night,
Your hand was holding mine,
I don't ever want to leave your side.

I turn to you and smile,
Because just for a while,
I don't feel any pain inside.

Where have you been?
I've been waiting so long;
To write you this song.
Lyrics from a song I wrote.

To love yourself is an art.

Nameless men sketch their fantasies along my hips
admiring me as I were their
                                                           masterpiece.

**** in an antique wooden frame
    that hangs by my throat,
                                                            gagging.
