here we are again
etching sunset colored lies onto old, recycled lines

the scent of my perfume is violent against your salty skin
and we're bleeding perspiration as I hurl desperate apologies
against the brutally honest murmur of your heartbeat

when you undressed me with your eyes
you never expected this

we discovered that time was our enemy
as we watched our desire die
now my skin is puckered and dry from the ferocity of your touch
and my eyes are swollen shut in denial
as I blindly follow you to our destruction

here I am again
waiting for you
even though we both know
you're never coming home
