i transcend in bits
in dire twists
in fragments
we attach ourselves
in the slightest
details of our desires
forming fires and liars
relationships always expire
in death we kiss
swaying in bliss
two bits and a tease
words against my knees
i paint you darkened poetry
slicing your tongue so you can breathe
we sleep in oasis
dreaming of mauritius
we break knees to twist
shift gears to drift
away from nights
on top of mountains
screaming names we can hardly remember
have you ever sent roses
and had them retuned to sender?
embers sleep
like you and we
words against a chest
pressed upon a beat
we make moments out of memories
scream names for sense
all things eventually end
as does our heartbeat
return to sender
