i wear my love on my lips and my lust on my hips.

Folder: 
first

darling, are you happy now?

i brought myself back to bed.

although i'd much prefer instead

falling asleep on your couch,

wrapped in blankets and myself.

so even if you aren't happy now

please just say you are for me.

 

i feel your smiles writing lovenotes

on the backs of my eyelids.

i feel your fingers on my heart.

if i don't get myself out quickly,

darling, i will turn you into art.

 

you make it so easy for me to succomb

to your devilish ways.

with the sunken eyes of lover's retreat,

i unravel at your feet.

darling do you love it all?

oh please just tell me that you do.

 

darling, you know i meant every word i spoke.

you were the sun hiding behind a cloud of smoke.

you took my breath with every guilty look.

sometimes you make me feel like a complete joke.

i love you too openly to ever think i could run.

you have my heart in one hand and in the other a gun.

 

i feel your smiles on the backs of my eyelids.

i see your fingers writing lovenotes on my heart.

if i don't get myself out quickly,

oh lover, i will turn you into art.
