I ache to fill the spaces
between your fingers
To hollow out the mirror
and make a better form of
twisted sanity--me
To make my hair the right
length--the right type
For my eyes to catch yours
in summer twilight
Love lighting up stars
like fireflies glowing over
a lake
I long for your hand in mine
Certainty confronted between--
subtle fingers, dancing,
intertwining around one another
like ballerinas sure of their steps
Silence falling upon footfalls
&& as night gathers, in starlight
I want you to love me always
not just for one night
when words of love become the one
thing to lure--to make me succumb
Still I am captivated by your
smile, your kiss--like fire dancing
on my tongue
My lips, a blazen glory
Take me away, and lets get lost--
in the spaces between our fingers
beneath a fiery sky where
love doesnt end && faerytales
dance like ocean waves on a sandy
desperation
I ache to fill the spaces between
your fingers
To ache for you is to ache
for more time
More time to become infinite,
well-defined, reputable in your memory,
imprinted in your mind,
sewn into your soul
&& if tomorrow never comes
I could die along with you today
with words rumbling in our ears
Whispers--like shadows reflections
across the bedroom floor
As we become one, fill in destiny
and times promise
I look into your eyes,
where stars fall && demons crawl
somewhere between heartbreak
and sorrows end
[I.ache.to.fill.the.spaces.between.your.fingers.]
between your fingers
To hollow out the mirror
and make a better form of
twisted sanity--me
To make my hair the right
length--the right type
For my eyes to catch yours
in summer twilight
Love lighting up stars
like fireflies glowing over
a lake
I long for your hand in mine
Certainty confronted between--
subtle fingers, dancing,
intertwining around one another
like ballerinas sure of their steps
Silence falling upon footfalls
&& as night gathers, in starlight
I want you to love me always
not just for one night
when words of love become the one

Still I am captivated by your

My lips, a blazen glory
Take me away, and lets get lost--
in the spaces between our fingers
beneath a fiery sky where
love doesnt end && faerytales
dance like ocean waves on a sandy

I ache to fill the spaces between
your fingers
To ache for you is to ache
for more time
More time to become infinite,
well-defined, reputable in your memory,
