The Mind lives on the Heart
Like any Parasite—
If that is full of Meat
The Mind is fat.

But if the Heart omit
Emaciate the Wit—
The Aliment of it
So absolute.

God is indeed a jealous God—
He cannot bear to see
That we had rather not with Him
But with each other play.

She dealt her pretty words like Blades—
How glittering they shone—
And every One unbared a Nerve
Or wantoned with a Bone—

She never deemed—she hurt—
That—is not Steel’s Affair—
A ****** grimace in the Flesh—
How ill the Creatures bear—

To Ache is human—not polite—
The Film upon the eye
Mortality’s old Custom—
Just locking up—to Die.

So give me back to Death—
The Death I never feared
Except that it deprived of thee—
And now, by Life deprived,
In my own Grave I breathe
And estimate its size—
Its size is all that Hell can guess—
And all that Heaven was—

I’m Nobody! Who are you?
Are you—Nobody—Too?
Then there’s a pair of us!
Don’t tell! they’d advertise—you know!

How dreary—to be—Somebody!
How public—like a Frog—
To tell one’s name—the livelong June—
To an admiring Bog!

Our little talk

As the words left your lips,
I knew  I was a goner.
I knew I would live the rest of my life fawning over our little talks.

Our little talks.
You said my name
my heart beats fast,
If it doesn't slow down I think i'll crash.
You breathed down my neck
you turned my body into a hopeless wreck.

Our little talks.
I spend all night reenacting,
our little talks are so distracting.
At night I say your name over and over
when I say your name its keeps me sober.
I say your name my hearts on edge
I say your name like its a pledge.

Our little talk.
I anticipate them all
I anticipate the fall
we talk all day
I dream all night
our little talk my little light

Im weak

Im weak against you
your smell, your smile.
The warmth it drives me wild
Your touch sets my body ablaze,
my mind goes in a dreamy haze.
I'm so amazed.
My **** little secret, so ***** so wild.
My hottest fantasy not for a child.
I look at you my mind blanks out.
The things I would do to you would make you scream and shout.
I'm weak against the temptation,
the disease I call your flesh.
You drive my body crazy there is no rest.
I'm weak.
-I'm weak against the temptation,
the disease I call your flesh.
