I close my eyes and my ears,
only to have society’s thoughts wash down my eyelids
with its words trying to penetrate my mouth

Silence in my ears to clear my thoughts and heart
To edit and revise my emotions
And leave me speechless

The quite sounds erupt my eardrums
Like the hearts of first time lovers
To the passion of adult hood

Naïve fingertips
Young lips
Smooth touch of something new

Forgiveness seeps into my veins
And rushes to my mouth
Only to taste so bitter sweet

Lust drips off my eyelashes
To fall to the ground
Misused and un appreciated

Anger violates my skin
And rashes it with violence
And scars my arms with defeat

Sadness runs down my throat
Salt burn away at my insides
Breaking me down from the inside

All of this going on at once
To cause myself to become lost
In who you are

To begin to form one
All at once
And begin something that is completely different
