The indescretion everyone can be capable of The transgression of misconstruing love Spins by my peripherals I can't recollect Flesh, omnipresent Foreign to each other It's much easier to cease the silence through touching Clasped lips, hands, miscellaneous It's supposed to be fun sensation without depth of feeling Then it's also supposed to matter with one person only The constellation of freckles bespeckled dots on your back Time spent alone with other people that aren't you... Feigning smiles Laughing like friends that I will never see again What does casual even mean "Casual" seems to mean fleeting Pulses, caught in eachothers breaths Keeping love notes Intertwining sweats because I can't sleep alone I guess Misshapen puzzle pieces that can't connect through any medium except *** Shadow faced individuals Ideals of romance courtship rituals fragmented by the dashboard light Why is there pleasure in self destruction ripping our clothes for a Semblance of passion Asking to be left alone feeling like you compromised someone with every face you can't replace the dyad of the one.
