he loved the way i smelled, tasted
had a hatred for the maple texture of my skin
the sweet was of another, the taste was of other
candles of the essence and hope within air
the hair, tenderness and souls in blaze
we were two, but i wanted one
you wanted another drink while i called hun
a selfish yearn for something other than one
lust for two, for you, a stranger who could never
fists go rounds, thoughts forever bound
skip for love, for us and holy matrimony of under
i kill and kiss, wipe the blood i’ll forever miss
the smear, the tears and scented breath of vanilla
we’ll always be with the wind and under the sun
always against the moon, essentially the dark side of us
another life, another time and another flip of a dime
forever a rhyme of a moment, a tone and a hopeless hole
romance of red and passion and purple hues
the way the sky meets the ocean and blue turns yellow
we were a moment that traveled like the way yellow graced your face on that hot summer day
a top in grey, a drink for two and a face that sparkled under the moon
just you and i, something beautiful that unfortunately fused with cancer and the thought of forever
