your passion is a mountain i've climbed time after time but i can't make it to the top your desire is elusive it slips through my fingers before i can think to grab on i want to study your design like an architect but your lips take hold of me and i forget my purpose we venture, nervously, but willingly far from home with a sleepy, silent return the line between brave and utterly stupid has been erased so we're living on a diet of syndicated jokes and liquid courage to the point where none of it seems real enough to comprehend where the honesty is almost trite where i can't tell if you're afraid or sad or happy, or maybe you just don't care or maybe you're too afraid to care because you know that i'll be missing the feeling of you beside me that security of your body in the crowd of my thoughts i haven't gone far enough to miss you yet but i already pine for you when i sleep the great wall of your shoulders makes me feel safe the map of your skin guides my need but in your world, i feel like a little girl trying to convince kings to raze cities
