lush

As daft fingers feel the sensation to weep
and wax melted candles mirror your sleep
you are the beauty that forces the pain to retreat,
regardless of the waves that keep breaking.
Though we never intended it to turn out this way
the power of destiny pulls like a rage
the silk of your lips hides my beast in its cage,
my heart is the one that you've taken.
When I breathe you in its impossible to abstain
our love cuts through the darkness like a midnight train
your velvet touch pushes the blood through my veins,
when I'm not holding you my arms are aching.
So I bite my lip and turn tears away
and hourglass sand holds still as I say
I love you stronger and deeper each day,
you are half of my whole, no mistaking.
