Hurting so bad
Touching your skin
Such sin
When your lips
Touch mine
Chemicals release inside my brain
Spectrums of electricity must
Jump from neuron to neuron
Collapsing memory pods
From years before
The storm you bring to mind
The clouds billowing in time
God your eyes burn through
The core of my existence
Every time I see the little kid
Inside of you
Driving your million dollar machine
Touching you so insane
The most giant softest lips
Of all time
You’ll never be mine
Why can’t I just turn and walk away
Knowing the barbwire is just too much
To take when the spikes crush my hands
Bleeding palms
Fleeing pawns
The characters of my life
Will surely run and cry when I damage them
Surely it will just hurt too bad
To walk away so many times
From you
I must come to you again
To see in the light
Just give me one more memory tonight
Risking the lessons I know to be true
Insanity with you
God you drive me so crazy
But it’s still so wrong
Why can’t I just sing this song
And let it slide like
The rocks that want to crumble
Standing under this humble
Still mumbling when I walk away
Watching your face in the distance
I see the woman I wish I could hold
But like my mother
I just never could reach you
I never got enough
And sand paper is too rough
To rub across your legs
Bleeding from the head
Mentally aching
I miss the sound of your voice
Calling my name in the sheets
Perfect sleep
A perfect heap of flesh
We make when we lay this way
Something about our brown skin
That just makes sense
Yet there’s nothing easy
About you and me
Forging through
Our own eternities
Still alone
Searching for love
And searching for one
Something with someone
Something worth meaning
God you’re so good
At leaving me
Quick snap and your gone
Never believing you
Yet this time I must let go
For I know too much
This time around
To pretend otherwise
A fool in love
A cool black glove
To cover my hands
When I lift weights
Some cool black skin
To cover my face
When I have to lift you away
Somehow
Life will take us away
For my love
My Christina
There will be a time
When I must allow myself
To fly away
