he is my patience but you are my passion - a flame lit from within and mouths melting from touching skin. electric jolts and burning flesh. i thought i knew you best in the light of the moon when fat moths rest in a cocoon. car doors open and fogged up windows with ragged words whispered in the quiet of twilight for this is the last time or so we claim. warm mouth but cold hands and long limbs. am i your favourite sin? it’s probably all part of a plan we are too young to understand so we get it out of our system again and then shake our heads at our sick tug of war game. pain and shame with desire and stiff bones set afire - shall we do it again…?
