alive

I’m intoxicated by your scent

I smell you on my skin

Every time I take a breathe

I inhale the aroma of your sin

I feel your fingers on my body

Your lips brushing my neck

I feel remnants of what we were

Dripping in my cold sweat

I’m drowning in this ocean

Tied down by the tension

I’m screaming for change

Just a little attention

I hear my name slip off your tongue

I see the honesty in your eyes

God you make me feel so young

This is what it must be like

To be alive
