There was something
pure in your eyes
and something
sinister about
your smile.
And my god,
I loved it.

There're spaces within
my chest,
         and this redundant
       motion of
             rising and falling
     will suffocate
   the very essence
of my soul.
     And as I ache
     for the love that
     your body
     provides,
I will find myself
reaching for you-
      completely
              deprived.

The less
you
tried,
     the more
      I fell
      in
      love.

And that's
been the
story
thus
far.
