You're cutting into my circulation,
And stealing away my oxygen.
You brought me comfort,
I assumed you'd always be near.

I let myself get too close,
I should have been more careful.
But I let you sneak up on me,
And time wasn't on my side.

But when I look at you,
I see past your eyes.
And though they're dark and beautiful,
I also find beauty in your mind.

I know your heart's been scarred before,
And you may be scared to let me stich it back together.
But I know how to use a needle,
Because I've had to mend my own a time or two.

So hand me a piece of thread,
And I'll use it on us both.
And I promise I won't let it break,
Because I've tied yours with mine.

Undress me with your eyes,
While I do the same in my mind.
Your breath on my neck,
As your lips brush down to my shoulder.
Chills running down my spine,
While your fingertips graze my skin.
Sweet sighs whispered,
Softly in my ear.
Arousing my body,
Losing sense of all rational thought.
I close my eyes,
And inhale your scent.
Calming my mind,
And slowly giving in.
For its been too long,
And my body's been aching for this.

I wish I was an artist,
But my tongue is creative enough.
Dancing across your lips,
Creating the image in my head,
Breathing it to life.
Daring me with your eyes,
Your craving just one kiss.
As your lips brush against mine,
Barely close enough to even exist.

Use the gap between your teeth to help you breathe.
Because once your hands touch my body,
You won't remember to come up for air.

With your hands on my waist,
So lost in your embrace.
Our bodies,
Speaking softly together.
Whispering in the dark,
Pulling away,
Only when our lungs are desperate for air.

I don't know what to believe in,
Or if I believe in anything at all.
But the only thing keeping me alive,
Is the fear of life after death.
Or is it just emptiness that will consume my soul.
No pain or punishment,
For taking my own life.
I feel the loneliness destroy me.
Filling my mind with thoughts of suicide.
Searching for a way out,
While longing for a reason to stay.

The sunset is fading,
but my eyes are on you.
Running your fingers across my arm,
tracing my tattoo.
My head resting on your chest,
feeling your every breath.
As your face leans closer,
yesterday fades away.
Our lips meet,
and the pain no longer stays.
Your tongue dances with mine,
speaking only to me.
Because even in the silence,
I can still hear you speak.

My feet are worn,
My lungs are tired.
My whole body,
Is going haywire.

It's hard to breathe,
I don't want to believe.
My heart is beating fast,
It's becoming harder to grasp.

So lost in thought,
Of what time would've brought.
This can't be goodbye,
We've only just said hi.

But I know I'll see you tonight,
Right when I fall asleep.
And when I wake up,
This will only be a dream.

Why
Why am I here,
When no one wants me.
Why do I live,
When you just shot me.
Why would I forgive,
When you won't say sorry.
