I stayed under the stars for too long And now, I am burning with lust Life flickers like a candle in my eyes But my voice gravels like a leaf crushed in autumn And I lose myself like a gust of wind through the trees. My words leave bruises like blue prints and they short circuit your mind Desire stains on your skin, and I map your veins as though they are clues A key to the map of the course my tongue will travel Until your hands pull out my hair And your back arches.
