love

If the god creature
holds me in heaven
I'll shatter the gates
and claw my way to you

If the shining star
throws me to hell
I'll burn my way back
to this world with you

If there is only darkness
and the void comes for me
I'll wail against the wild
'til my voice reaches you

If the earth claims me
leaving but dust and dreams
My dreams will call the wind
And I will walk with you

I will be with you
Even when all things
say that I am gone

She can't think of me
and I won't think of her
that's the only way
we know how to love
If she thinks of me
then I'll think of her
and we will be
lost in hopes
of love that we
can never have
so
She won't think of me
and I can't think of her

I am cold
and I need you
to warm my veins
It is not love
but desire
It is not passion
but resurrection
I can live
In your arms
Breathe as you moan
draw you close
and pretend
your heartbeat is mine
I am cold
and your warmth
is like life

Some fall easily
and some inspire
easy falling

I can never say
impressive things
because I want
to impress you

I can whisper gentle
words that cut
and make them bleed
for the want of me
but they
don't concern me

I don't understand
Why I'm frail
and lost in doubt
when I speak
to you

I know where I stand
with them
Two feet from desire
and closer to
seduction

Where am I with you?
Am I even a thought?
The ghost of a feeling?
I think I am fading
past unimportant.
