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

Maple Syrup
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
