Darling, darling-- I still creep beneath you I yearn for your reach. Lit between the floorboards, I watch you dance in panels-- watch you undress under strobe light-- watch you sleep in shades of dark. Sometimes, I crawl out through the vents, to come sit on your nightstand. And we breath in synchronicity. The air grows hot between us and sometimes, I can't help myself but reach out for the covers to uncover, but instead I crawl back down and sprawl my legs and disappear again back into the walls.

To Watch From Afar
Darling, darling-- I still creep beneath you I yearn for your reach. Lit between the floorboards, I watch you dance in panels-- watch you undress under strobe light-- watch you sleep in shades of dark. Sometimes, I crawl out through the vents, to come sit on your nightstand. And we breath in synchronicity. The air grows hot between us and sometimes, I can't help myself but reach out for the covers to uncover, but instead I crawl back down and sprawl my legs and disappear again back into the walls.
