Chase me down a flight of stairs,

haunt me in the hall.

Carry me across your grave,

and press me to the wall.

Love me in your silent way,

jolt me with your touch,

Kiss me cold, you troubled soul,

and love me just as such.

We dance along lines of fine white powder, 

swaying back and forth

between beauty and chaos.

With you at my lips,

we stood over empires.

Pull me back like waves over sand,

and I'll breathe you in till I see stars.

Slip chains around my wrists,

and I'll cherish them like jewelry.

Sink into my clothes,

my skin, my bones, 

and I'll fall in bliss upon my knees.

In morning light,

I'll see nothing but ruins

until I breathe you in once more

like fine white powder.

We worshiped salt and sand, 

stars and smoke. 

We ran down dirty streets

and stumbled into daydreams. 

We found, for the night, 

purpose for our once aimless hope.

The smile betrays the bleakness of the face. Jaw set. Eyes fixed on the tiles as I step. A silent click clack echoes through the walls. The throb of blood intense against bulging veins.

Stern expression. Blank and unaware. Some bullshit facade of strength. My gut wrenches. The door creaks. Rusty hinges and dingy lighting. Instincts stiffen the back. Square the shoulders. The familiarity of your arms sliding frantically around me. A sigh of relief. Muscles lose tension. The weight of the shadow lifts and I smile as I breathe you in.

I love you. I love you I do.

I know how fleeting your words can be and so I kiss you. Deep, hungry. for a moment we aren't here and you're still mine and the world is filled with technicolor once more.

Lovely, deep and concerned you seem

When the heavy clouds carelessly rush before the winds

Uncovering, uncovering the nakedness beyond

You appear,...

look! we say, the color of the sky!

But it is always you, covering the nakedness beyond

I will praise you as I crack the top

Worship as I swallow it down

Hit my knees at the altar of the god of wine and beg for your freedom.

I will love you as I cut the line and smile as I disappear to happy days of sunshine and butterflies and you at snuggled into me. Wet and uunnerved by the river. I will love you witha love as perfect as the line. Mirror image a haunting tell of my fall. I will love you until the bottle aches and my veins reject the poison of the pain. I wil love you with a love beyond the words of love. And I will welcome death be it my hand or your own. I will fall in defense of the daughter of Zeus and I shall rest easy be it your hand or my own.

Your beauty is unmarked. From the day to day failures. To the could haves and would haves. Your face shall stand the test of time. Eyes haunting and sincere. Lips set in anger. Your jaw line. Stern and held at the angle of perfection.

Through the tremors. Through the pain. Know my greatest regret is never truly holding you through the fire. The sweat, the withdrawal...I never held you quite as tight. And now revel in the notion of you withdrawing alone. Scared and pathetic. Happy thoughts make you fly.

I hope you die. Caged and miserable and alone. Face down in the bile of your choices

I don't have it in me to let you down

Through the mazes and the disillusionment. The pain is miniscule compared to your smile. Your safety allows my head to rest. To dream of moments of you and me.

I don't have it in me to hurt you. Not like you've hurt me. Ill pull away and look at you in anger. With dusgusyed eyes and a proud brow. But I will fall at your feet upon command. I will war the seven seas and the stars beyond.

I am lost in my arrogance. Believing you are mine.

Happiness was to swim across

But I found solace in drowning

Life was all about moving on

But I savoured pain of clinging

Love isn't all about trying to win

But it's all about losing yourself

Not white not black but it's always Grey..

It's that inseparable phase which is there to stay...
