Someone loved you
without ever truly believing
they gave their word,
they’d love in return.
You’re making a new record,
tonight you fell asleep in his arms
and the look on your face
I couldn’t really see,
so I stayed.
Maybe come tomorrow
we could unpack and start all over?
I’m the one who cherishes time,
and in all honesty, I swear
I just want your hand in mine.
The fit of your body
it’s 4am and even I know
a certain change will come
and then we’ll be blended perfectly.
Until then though,
I’d be perfectly happy knowing
you’d be thrilled to be in my pocket,
obviously I’ve always made room for you.
I’ll give in and surrender to your words.
Promise me you’ll move closer love,
the world is too dangerous
to think I could go out there on my own
and think I’d find another us.
Whispering to the backs of hands,
life balances even as I lean
from right to left.
The distance between us
can be conquered with one square look.
Wrists very lightly tied,
you insist I find a choker necklace
for that constant pressure,
every time you swallow
you’ll feel the clasp dig in.
Pressed firmly against the skin
I want you that close to me,
so I can feel what is missing.
I just want to love you
sitting outside sipping on a bottle,
the both of us getting a little drunk,
we’ll turn over and kiss even harder
until we’ve lost track of the hour.
If you have a moment
naturally, that’s how much
you move me from one place
to somewhere completely different.
What I want the most though
is something you already know
without the use of all these words.
I tend to get in the way
impatiently waiting, but
waiting none the less,
just hurry love
I want the next
dance with you.
We could spin
under a full belly of stars
out in a freshly cut field
staining hungry hands
I want to feel you
hips sway slowly
it’s so pretty
watching.
