home

lines

my nails trace every line on your body

the fragile folds at every joint

one day there will be lines on your face

but i will still trace it at that point

.

your hair traces the air at the tips

as you turn, they softly graze me

when your hair turns to silver it will become

the precious metal that drives me crazy

.

i empty myself out

i empty myself out

for another second of you

i empty myself out

.

your black eyes sparkle with mine

your voice seems to stop time

a thousand years would feel like nothing

just don’t leave my side

.

my legs intertwine with yours

and i can feel every cell shake

even when my muscles wear down

i will embrace you with all it takes

.

your skin clings to mine so gently

and my senses can’t get enough

when your skin sags off your bones

i will still be there to show you love

.

i bleed myself dry

i bleed myself dry

for every inch of you

i bleed myself dry

.

your soft skin sparkles with mine

your touch transcends rhymes

a million bullets would feel like nothing

just don’t leave my side

.

don’t go away, and i will do the same

i’ll be here when it hurts, but promise me

that you will be there when i’m bleeding out

my angel, make sure you believe

.

your life sparkles in mine

your love feels like a crime

i could go through a million more lifetimes

as long as you are by my side

.
