i tried to steal your sober heart,
and promised not to break it.
i told my soul to stay intact,
in stead, it couldn't take it.

sickening, its evident,
your loving soul was heaven sent,
the shame we shared,
we never meant,
was celibate to all your sin,
addictions that i learned to fend,
i ******* let you in again.

your blood was my own,
excluding your hair.
a simple exchange,
of our words, subtle care.
i feel far apart,
in my room i remain,
remembering memories,
writing in shame.
your rock on my back,
on a mountain to climb.
missing the company,
washed from our lives.

gripped face,
wet hands,
sun breaks,
you stand.

falling down again.

our eyes just commune,
a love lit in tune.
simply wandering,
falling towards you.
tragic and tryst,
with flames that we miss.
filled our emotions,
so drunken in kiss.
hopes that you follow,
and hold up the signs,
feelings unearthed,
so you'll find them in rhyme.

terrifyingly tantalizing,
realizing lies in me,
red eyes from my burning tree,
regret like a past-time dream,
unafraid of what, suddenly, can be,
my heart swelling suddenly.
a sin without curse,
as it holds me so lovingly.
words in my mouth,
that your body can speak.
seeing your face,
a tortured release.

i found you in fire,
you found me without.
i sat in my embers,
and never to be.
you opened your arms,
and gave me a flame.
my worth was the sand,
you gave me a name.
i took apprehension,
you lived in it too.
i feared all the meanings,
you saw me, a fool.
my time was a question,
your eyes signaled truth.
i sat so uninterested,
suffering you.
