Nose pressed to cheek
Breath against breath
breath against flesh.
Oh lover, how I got you mad.
I got you tempted.
I got you crazy.
You got me high.
You got me ruined.
You got me wasted.
Paper versus rock, you cover me.
The silver sex you stirred into my drink
Laced its poison upon my mouth
Twisted lips and fingertips...
Baby's got me trapped six feet under
Stuck between remote controls
and down comforters.
Lover, what you do to me...
I swallow glass
just so that I may never speak your name.
The anticipation of the letters that spell:
Y, O, and U
and I am a volcano
melting down
down...
down.
Ash on your fingers
the residue blackens your lungs
inside you I burn.
Lover, what you do to me...
The psychosexual hold
you intertwined with my fingers
a grasp so tight and I am
begging for air.
Lips upon lips
mouths upon mouths
hands upon skin.
The pinstripes that run your hips
draw the ink that creeps in vines
across my back.
Oh lover, what you do
when you lay your lips down upon me.
