Nov 2013
truthfully, i am amorous
you are a fever
cover me with your symptoms
i will stay bedridden,
laid on my back
till my neighbours know your name
i was a waning moon
you are apollo
take one small step closer to me
to my uncharted territory
leave your footprint
on my lower back
i'll leave my foot
in my mouth
because i can't eclipse my awkward
no matter how hard i try
call me bonfire
i will burn every word
in one flushed face
on escalators & train carriages
i picture your denim
leaving your skin
at 70 miles per hour
your altitude
gets me all lightheaded
light me up
like mars in the night sky
boy, crash into me
like a meteor
i want you to be my natural disaster
because i've never loved
without blowing up
please,
******* up.
