just for you.

Forcing worlds to collide, yet
surprised by the impact,

you waited under the stars
expecting a sun to bloom
just for you.

no service.

I'm starting to see
all the ways these desires
are not serving me.

new domain.

I can see that you can't breathe
underwater, so unlike me.
My new domain full of exotic prey,
no gravity urging me to new depths.
I can find my own way down.

winner winner.

Maybe it's good for the soul,
we're just a couple warm bodies afterall.
Fingers crossed we make it out
a little less wicked than we came.
But with you by my side darlin',
I'll let the demons win
and call it a night.

tender mess.

Unravel me slowly, please
I'm a tender mess
in love with this sadness
and running out of words

if the devil's in the details tonight.

Slowly smoking and
leaving the rest unsaid,
I'll extinguish our essence
through the silence and fading bruises

and found me on a bad day;

where do I begin?
Boldly unprepared
for whats ahead

I often wonder
where I find the time...

the evil i know.

Waiting my turn
I can't be bothered to share
in love with another sinner
think I'll grow out my hair
no I don't mind, no I swear
you're all the evil I know
and maybe
I know it all too well tonight.

checking in.

Checking in on myself
I'm seeing stars and
I can't let go tonight.

Double check my math,
something's not right.

She's in every word I speak,
every thought I think
but something's not right tonight.
