Mar 2014
You loved her with your body all night but didn't know who she was in the morning.
You even turned the lights out before turning
Your hands in her hair but they're actually touching her mind
Your fingers tracing her skin but you can't even see the lines they're leaving behind
Your arms around her waist and she tries to make it seem like forever.
But it's only one night and she can't seem to bring all of her thoughts together.
A single touch, its like a single drop in a perfectly still pond and even you can't stop the ripples from making waves.
You think they'd wear out by now but they've been crashing around her for days.
Oh and you're touching her, touching her, and she's trying to hear words but she can't even make out a sound.
Your waves they're splashing her
S p l a s h i n g her
And she thought she could drink them but she drowned.
