Lush

by Seth - Pisces

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 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 dark 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're half of my whole, no mistaking.

Reason for writing:

    thank you for reading.
