Infection
I want to stay looking into your eyes forever
But I dont know if forever would be right.
Your poison lips rested on my own
And as I lick it away,
It tastes strangely sweet.
To be held, to be loved
Its all we want in life.
Its something we crave
Because were broken.
I want to heal you
And breathe you into my lungs
But I dont know how.
I am so paralyzed
From the pain thats lying there inside.
And the poison now running through my veins
Is taking its course throughout my body.
Running through every crack and every pore,
This infection is making me oh so numb.
I dont know how to feel.
Your eyes cant stray from mine
And your arms are outstretched around me.
It feels safe and warm
And I slowly breathe you in
For just a moment.
Till Im consumed with this infection
And I can hardly breathe.
My head is spinning and I feel as if I might faint.
If I should fall to my knees,
Will you catch me before I land?
