Draw me in And hold me close. Feel my body Shiver in your strong arms And the spreading Goosebumps Stand firm Against your warm skin As you try to shelter me From the brisk night air. Stare at the sky with me And search its depths For all the stars We could possibly find. Light a cigarette And take long, steady drags And inhale deeply Allowing the tar to tickle your lungs Before you exhale the poison So the sharp, comforting smell Of ashes and a Marlboro Red Can engulf us. Gaze down at me With warm, dulcet eyes And turn me around. Brush the hair from my face With your rough, callused hand So our eyes can meet. Rest one hand Gently on my hip While the other Carefully holds my face So your eager lips Can be pressed against mine. And when you’re done Let me feel the moisture Of a wisely placed peck On the center of my forehead In a subtle but sincere attempt To prove your care for me And my worth to you. And when all is said and done And you’re staring down at me Hoping that maybe, just maybe For once This time you got through to me, Wrap me in a god ****** hug And swear you’ll never let go. Cherish the feeling Of being entangled in each other’s arms And our bodies pressed together As we desperately cling To the only thing either of us has left. Just hold me and hope By some random inaccuracy of nature Time suddenly stops. And allows us to live these seconds For minutes. Hours. Days. Months. Years. Any amount of time Longer than it really is. Because, truth be told, We’ll never experience a moment More beautiful than that In our entire lifetimes.
