As she drained the bottle of wine
She realised
It was empty just like
Everyone's promises

You said my eyes sparkle
To the stars they are tethered
Like the night sky
You could get lost in them forever

Your words mean nothing
Because if they meant something
They would mean everything

When we were kids
We used to dream about
Finding love
Our first kiss
Having somebody to miss

You would dream about
Finding a love that encapsulates your soul
As It cascades down your body Trickling through each fibre of your being
Each heart beat sends a melody
that drips through your blood stream
Now your heart beats differently
entwined with another's
Infinitively
Both Love and blood share the same descendant,
The colour red
Maybe because they both flow through our veins
Maybe because they are the same
Indistinguishable

For a long time we dreamt about this day
But what if it wasn't a single day
It was a perpetual journey
You found yourself loving this person more each day
in ways that are undefinable
this kind love was indescribable
You find that your cracks are filled by their imperfections,
mending each other with your flaws
You find their presence is a kindling fire of comfort and warmth
Their smile fixes every inequity
Their eyes melt into a million memories
You find this person is home

You are the well my depression is drawn from
Never ending your shaft runs in my veins
Forever flowing, you ignite my pain

You called me hot
But now my name is gorgeous
There’s something in that shift
That makes this so dangerous
