Patchwork tapestry of amber hue
Illuminating the outline of intermingled me and you
Its cookie cutter reflection dancing across your skin
Let me feel you once
Some more
Another
Again and again
Never shut the blinds, always let the light in
Because to not see you shining before me would be a disastrous sin
Gazing upward, I feel my longing heart begin to race
If not, then this tormented life would seem utterly out of place
Because you
Right there
Sitting above me with your long brown hair
Is why I dream and dare
To lie here and stare
At your indescribable face
That reminisces of such beauty and grace
And appeases the malicious evil within me
To stop
Bow down
And kneel before thee
And concede to your haunting, angelic tone
That nothing
Not life
Not love
Not being
Is worth doing alone.

Patchwork tapestry of amber hue

Illuminating the outline of intermingled me and you

Its cookie cutter reflection dancing across your skin

Let me feel you once

Some more

Another

Again and again

Never shut the blinds, always let the light in

Because to not see you shining before me would be a disastrous sin

Gazing upward, I feel my longing heart begin to race

If not, then this tormented life would seem utterly out of place

Because you

Right there

Sitting above me with your long brown hair

Is why I dream and dare

To lie here and stare

At your indescribable face

That reminisces of such beauty and grace

And appeases the malicious evil within me

To stop

Bow down

And kneel before thee

And concede to your haunting, angelic tone

That nothing

Not life

Not love

Not being

Is worth doing alone.
