Nov 2015
We founded our lust on a smokey addiction
On an amity affliction
On the planes of the world we were yet to ponder

We based our feelings on a mutual agreement
A fleeting arrangement
Of live it don't feel it

We ripped our hearts from our sleeves
And left our clothes on the floor
And consummated a love that would never last

And as soon it left us
We lay stranded,
Tension averted
Replaced with anxiety crawling into our pores


Now we walk past eachother and smile innocently
Small talk and pleasantries
Pretend naively
That it was a one night thing

And that there isn't a hunger in our bellies
A thirst that needs quenching
I want you
But I don't know if you want me
