Marry Go Round

I can't find words that

say how I feel about you

because words lack the texture

to tickle my spine.

so instead,

we sit quiet,

absorbing each others breath,

the gasps taste like dreams

on the way down

and our eyes cover scars,

painting our lives together

on canvas torn apart

by the time it took to get here

so, we sit in silence,

more in love tonight,

than any other,

tasting life with dry tongues

that can't stop lapping love
