Description

so here we are, drenched in moonlight- 

starlight shimmers in the droplets on our skin

you chase the taste of wine 

on my tongue; i am winded

by the force you crashed into my life with but i

could never ask for anything less 

and you say you want to leave me as if 

you had a choice -

give me another way to tell you no; 

i'm sick of these wings and ill fall with you if you would let me

don't sneak away in the night, i want the stars 

to remember only our love; take my heart away in midday 

so i can see your face one last time


i know you believe in god and 

i know you can’t stop staring at the line of my neck but

i wish you would stop trying to worship two things at once

Ooh, I second and-speak , man~ If you think these poems aren't good enough for those final lines, I don't think I'll be able to read the one that is without weeping.
