How long will i be kept on edge...? When will the gush of a single breath pierce the swollen silence.. With words that belong to you...? How long will i be Suspended above molten desires...? Escaping through fingers pressed against my lips... Spilling out as a rhyme..? I pause ...in patient syllables, a tune on the tip of your tongue... As an uncaged secret... spilling from your eyes upon my skin.. your hands unravel passages... translating the map of my body in minutes that pass too soon... How long will i be in exile before we find that place...? Where i reveal every secret, exposed and shivering beneath these sheets of purple silk.. tangled in transparent urgencies... unfolding into a delicate intimacy... Spent in the ink of resonant whispers... How long will i be kept on edge ? And how far will i fall...?

How far will i fall?
How long will i be kept on edge...? When will the gush of a single breath pierce the swollen silence.. With words that belong to you...? How long will i be Suspended above molten desires...? Escaping through fingers pressed against my lips... Spilling out as a rhyme..? I pause ...in patient syllables, a tune on the tip of your tongue... As an uncaged secret... spilling from your eyes upon my skin.. your hands unravel passages... translating the map of my body in minutes that pass too soon... How long will i be in exile before we find that place...? Where i reveal every secret, exposed and shivering beneath these sheets of purple silk.. tangled in transparent urgencies... unfolding into a delicate intimacy... Spent in the ink of resonant whispers... How long will i be kept on edge ? And how far will i fall...?
