I want your nervous feelings
Every-time we say goodnight
I want your thoughts to linger beneath
The ivory blooming of my body
Just as death does the violet hymn
Give me your paranoia
Fixate on me with salty eyes
Turn to stone before me
With fingers placed between my thighs
This dark tunnel of a city
This diamond mouthful of a sky
Dance about like paper flowers
Wild and windblown
Upon the casket of our lives
Yet we're alive, more than we've ever been
With enough time
To kiss until our soft lips bleed
Perpetually lovely
Potentially futile
Tonight, you are the ocean
Tonight, I hit the tide
