Gone...:
Pull back the sheets between us and I’ll kiss you.
I promise I won’t touch.
I won’t despise you.
with time you’ll disappear.
just a faint memory of who we were…
pull back the sheets and I’ll see you for who you are.
Not myself reflected in your darkness.
I so want to touch you;
to know you’re alive.
I’ll love you ‘cause it’s all I know how.
But when you’re gone you never existed…
to me, a fictitious caricature
painting my nightmares red and holy.
Pull back these sheets bitch…
I’ll kiss you red
‘till you bleed from your mouth
this sweet cadence of life
its impurity… punctures my heart,
‘till I see clearly…
roses are red…
roses are red…
who are you?
Did you see me when I fucked him?
Raw and primitive, this lust is barbaric.
Love me like you loved yourself
before you destroyed yourself,
and took me with you.
Wrapped up in your arms…
you imprinted this love on your heart…
as the scars of your soul ravaged your mind
with false words,
unspoken with the echo of time…
as it permeates our self-conceptions…
and we walk together,
hand in hand…
lip to lip…
we breathe together, as one animal…
can I undress you now?
Before you die, I want to touch you.
Before I feel you, I want to know you’re there.
When you feel me, I’m gone…
‘cause when it’s over you never were.
Pull back the sheets between us and I’ll kiss you.
I promise I won’t touch.
I won’t despise you.
with time you’ll disappear.
just a faint memory of who we were…
pull back the sheets and I’ll see you for who you are.

to know you’re alive.
