you are a bathtub of balloons. lines of tears angels left on the counter above the cabinet your prescribed reasons used to stay. a hot shower away, from fixing your lovers face with teeth cut lips. blaming the steam for all the red in your half truths. teachings of sorcery mothers enchant their wombs in. a lesson to the future of how destiny was born tied to something greater. two fingers looked for god in the galaxy between your legs. an altered state of awareness passed around like the last hit everyone wants. you are 'fuck it' you are 'fuck me' you are 'fuck this' a function unto yourself, embraced unashamedly by passion. you are ******* revelry. politeness tiptoes at the edge of your spirit, tamed tirelessly through stares and the longing of freedom. you do not have the keys. we are candor, casually exchanging giggles at fear's table; ravaging silliness naked. splendor sprawling back, upwards to you and i. i, a gang of sighs and of panting. a church of wonder; a held promise of sequels. together our names produce dua; an etched ancient time. society: a middle finger we **** rigorously. the lust of nations who dared before us and are yet to come. we lived in visions. a moment from forever will appear, with us deemed illegal. chests pressed to eternity, the melody will thud thud thud risks are for lovers.

the secret of us
you are a bathtub of balloons. lines of tears angels left on the counter above the cabinet your prescribed reasons used to stay. a hot shower away, from fixing your lovers face with teeth cut lips. blaming the steam for all the red in your half truths. teachings of sorcery mothers enchant their wombs in. a lesson to the future of how destiny was born tied to something greater. two fingers looked for god in the galaxy between your legs. an altered state of awareness passed around like the last hit everyone wants. you are 'fuck it' you are 'fuck me' you are 'fuck this' a function unto yourself, embraced unashamedly by passion. you are ******* revelry. politeness tiptoes at the edge of your spirit, tamed tirelessly through stares and the longing of freedom. you do not have the keys. we are candor, casually exchanging giggles at fear's table; ravaging silliness naked. splendor sprawling back, upwards to you and i. i, a gang of sighs and of panting. a church of wonder; a held promise of sequels. together our names produce dua; an etched ancient time. society: a middle finger we **** rigorously. the lust of nations who dared before us and are yet to come. we lived in visions. a moment from forever will appear, with us deemed illegal. chests pressed to eternity, the melody will thud thud thud risks are for lovers.
