I kissed you out in the open last night
My lips were sticky with beer and static
I smelled like cigarettes and wild apples
My skin whispered to the tips of your fingers every time we touched
I felt like a violent flame dancing with no wind

Your eyes on my skin felt like cool black glass
Your tongue was so willing and tasted like maple syrup
Sweet and heavy
It dripped down my teeth like hot, sugary wax

My insides were shrieking horses, waiting to run
Their hooves drilled the ground with impatience
and their eyes were wild children, running towards sunsets

You pulled me closer
My heart beats were thunder
My breath was lightening
My hands moved like savages down your shoulders

The sky snickered
The stars sighed
And the moon looked away
I didn't care
All i could taste was maple syrup
