Sidereal

You slid to me with ice on your heels, flame on your back, the wind in your face, and the stars in your eyes. It's a scritchy scratchy situation made from a wishy washy connotation. Shift, shaft, shake the muscles beneath my skin. You crick crack creeped to corner of my grin. Broken with a kiss, and sealed with a sigh. You remain my favorite little white lie. Confessing that I don't know why I will write about you until the day that I die. You pretended; I embroider the delusion with every hiccup of a heart's confusion. Remember, child, what you can't see? I won't stop, I still fancy that fantasy. I pushed you away, but you threw me out. I was your trash; you were everyone's treasure. Internally screaming with scarcely a shout, all in all, the torture was my pleasure. Backtrack back, to this and our state. A slip of strength but not a slip of the tongue, Because like destiny and the idea of fate, I stopped believing in you when I was young. So I stole your ice for my heart and flames for my belly, because it's windy in my head with your stars on my mind
