Pinup girls swinging from the trees Rosy cheeks and shiny knees Flickering lights behind my eyes Rolling clouds hanging in the sky Closing my lids to the sweet respite Beautiful euphoria sweeping through the night Twinkling stars burning up in light Lovers basking in the moon's delight Cotton sticking in my throat Like the words I never spoke Dragonflies humming above the pond Fleeting notes of lovers song I feel the nerves beneath my skin Alive and buzzing from the warmth of winds Kissing collarbones with empty lips Like it did when we were kids Bees crawling up my neck With fragile wings and dainty legs I dreamed I was the queen of them Proctecting me in the face of death
