Memories of you haunt my skin
Often you are intangible, unreachable
Occasionally
You allow yourself to be magnetized by my need
You tease me
You give me five seconds of your breath
Only to steal it back with a kiss
And you leave
And I am forced to pick apart these remnants of you
To draw them out on my own sanity
Until the next time that you decide
To greet me with loving arms
An innocent smile
And a soul wrenching kiss




But it's worth it.

I depend on you
The way my oak tree
Depends on
A dead branch.

I hope she
Doesn't become
Your
Dead weight,
In the way you
Became
Mine.

Why
Can't
I
Write
What
My
Soul
Wants
To
Say
.

I need to be released
Into deep
Dark
Oceans

So I can sift sand through my fingertips
And hide from you.

So I can hold your sacred eyes in my hand
And blind you.

So I can drown.

help

My soul is nervous, desperate
My fingers burn with a familiar itch
Ink pushes, trying to bleed out
Frantic to cover the pale white paper

Words stolen from my mouth
Lips replace them
Explore my caverous soul
******* endless love
My heart throbs in my throat
Heat fills me
I depend on our love
