Candyland

As your hand travels frivolously To rest on my leg My quiet heart races Then faints Awakened, I'm dizzy And I look around I'm not where I was This is different ground In this dreamworld I wander You take my hand And lead me onward There are teacups of chocolate And rainbows of cream Pathways of gum drops In this delicious dream I weep happy tears As you lay here with me On this sunken silk Made of soft candy Like sunken ships Our feelings plummet Into the sweet sea They had just met They descend into peace Tranquility and ease With every breath lost They gave a tight squeeze From one hand to the other Between cold lips Sweet nothings were murmured And their tale was told Waves turned to flame Covered in fire The cold left quick Flames the new squire The minty swirls Overlapped and smothered The orange licks of flame In the dimming light Our bodies dissolved On lustful tongues Our cries were not heard From our disappearing lungs
