r e v i v e / m e

in the midst of this fire,

we dance without a care

without realizing that the flames

are tracing their fury up our legs

burning the edges of our dresses

because what’s blood

when there’s love

to heal

so we let ourselves bleed

throughout the night

hearts screaming and body aching

as we stumble over death

but never into it

because what’s death

when there are kisses

to revive
