Sometimes I wonder if somehow you're the greatest accident I might just live through
And its on days like these when the sky is crying that I remember salted caramel kisses in the rain and violent starry night crashes and the bruises on my skin
You were like some wounded animal I kiss your scars and you run away firing off like a sawn off shotgun when daybreak comes But I can still taste you on my tongue
You said you wished your wisdom teeth would grow straight Maybe I'm just your favorite sin to make My lipstick stains on your cigarettes I haven't washed your scent out of my hair a veiled threat of moonlit shore secrets mad ******* poetry and intoxicating electricity in a not-so foreign place come find me If only I'd care enough to stay
Why can't it be simple like lazy early mornings when you'd find me leather jacket and bikini waiting for the sun to warm my bones Or sleeping away most of the day in naked intimacy Incandescent nights making music in candlelight
Maybe it was some drunk accident of six years ago When I found someone else who loves dancing in the rain as much as I do Maybe it's true that sometimes love is written in episodes When will you learn how to love the things you don't understand And to stop running away from yourself in endless feedback loops day after night after day after everything
There are times when there is wisdom to be had and it takes wanting too much to bring color to these hours maybe I like how things fall as they are Why don't you and I just hide tonight for old time's sake? And maybe we can make the same mistake like we always do And breathe in the summer solstice with wide eyes bringing heat to each other's sheets until we peel off this summer skin
And I am still here in fits and starts while you're sleeping thinking about this new accident just waiting to happen
