When you blink, who arrives?
Those curves for riding, I dare you
sentimentally tragic, stay a minute
exhale those limits
One ways, you get goosebumps



         -until we erupt

Knowing..

will I forever answer when needed?
No knocking beyond that door
Open up to see only one of me
I’ve always needed you more

waiting to appear on film
you appeared where i’ve never stood
towards the reflection
reveling for the moment
how so, latent lover?
instant to where i felt pain
where i smile for exposure


                     

                       -for you to claim

Am I proud of the fact
That I’m over you?

Proud of the fact
That my heart needs to
be distracted in order not to love you

Decode my feelings
If you find
time in which
you were preoccupied
to know if I left yet
too busy to scan the room
illustrate by seeking
only when the time is wrong
I loved you that way
plenty others swept under the rug
plenty lovers can’t hold on
needing each other just for fun

I’m rushing for you to say I’m too much.
That way every thought of me will have you rushing to wonder why
That rush isn’t fast. It’s eloped. It’s cyclical.
It’s the eyes that stare and wonder why you are made like something I can’t get rid of
Made like things people rush for
Love and lust can only be seperated when used responsibly
Use us up until your mistake becomes me

To another day of touching
Touching for inhabiting
Breathe my soul, torch my hair
where do I begin?

I’m the abdomen for your head
when you depend on
When you lay on, I stay stiff for you to frail on
Always making noises because of you
Pierce my lips together so I can hum on yours

Sharing care for others please let them stare.
Shaking because of the rush
Never bold dancing for you not to touch me here
Lick off my rough patches until I’m bare
