Don’t look at me like that
As if you’re amusing a child.
You hold my face with those cold fingertips
When I’ve carved out my heart so neatly
And laid it bare, in your palms so naively.
Why did I ever entertain that thought?

For you
I want to be home
Home in your arms.
Their faces are kind,
But their hearts are too cruel
I can’t trust anyone but you.
So I’m only staying here, waiting for you.
If
If it’s not self punishment
Then why am I doing the same thing
Over and over and over again?
Standing in the same corner
Watching the same rain
Heart in pain.
Like so
Twisted, convoluted and broken
We come to each other in pieces
Wanting to make a whole.
But all we ever do
Is sink into a dark hole
And wonder why we can’t fix each other, like so.
Snow
Clean like snow
You come to me.
Like the first snow,
Resting on pine trees,
Come back to me.
Find
I find myself in moments
Begging
Just a little more
It’s nothing but love
What use is pride?
Curl
I wonder if somewhere in this world
You’re in bed just as I am
Curled under the covers
With your hand between your thighs
Whispering my name
As your toes curl.
Maybe
Maybe we were destined for failure
I’ve never been fond of trying again and again
Because you make it so hard
Whether in life or in love
As if you’re afraid to lose all the above
Bones
I care for you
In a way that seeks no return
As if it were etched deep into my bone
You will always have a home.
Hair
Let me brush your hair
Strand by strand
They intertwine with mine as I lean down.
And if I comb this entire lifetime
I hope the gods will allow us to meet
In each and every lifetime.
