she swore by her five inch heels that the city lights ran through her veins. her mother complained about how she strutted through the doors smelling like my neck. i told my father about the way she smiles when i call her “my little darling” in cold hours of 2am when she rolls onto my shoulder. i told my mother about how she rubs my spine with her paint-brush fingers, hoping to turn my back into a starry night by van gogh; she’s my shooting star. her diaphragm syncs to the bass kick of “wanderlust” and i think i fell in love with her adventure; it’s not even the weekend yet. she asked me about my past and the only thing i could tell her was that the devil is paying me double to see you smile.

3am on city island
she swore by her five inch heels that the city lights ran through her veins. her mother complained about how she strutted through the doors smelling like my neck. i told my father about the way she smiles when i call her “my little darling” in cold hours of 2am when she rolls onto my shoulder. i told my mother about how she rubs my spine with her paint-brush fingers, hoping to turn my back into a starry night by van gogh; she’s my shooting star. her diaphragm syncs to the bass kick of “wanderlust” and i think i fell in love with her adventure; it’s not even the weekend yet. she asked me about my past and the only thing i could tell her was that the devil is paying me double to see you smile.
she smells like autumn and i smell like acqua di gio love me better, kiss me back, listen more.
