Your voice is the most beautiful silver lining I've ever seen on a thunderstorm.
---
And if I counted every reason
that I worship you so
The moon would melt
in a fit of tears
Before my song would cease.
And I would catch every drop that fell
To cradle in my palm
If only to satiate your thirst
For rapture...
(But I mustn't forget to breathe)
And if I could describe the way
your synthetic eyes enchant me
Radio waves
Would fall from the sky
Beneath the weight of their jealousy.
And I could use them to fashion a cradle
to hold every one of your
broken dreams...
(But I mustn't forget to breathe,)
(My darling)
"
(Hush now...)
I know you're crying, baby,
I feel you dying, baby,
And if I loved you I would
Let
You
Go...
(Right?)
I hear you whisper to me,
And I can't help but thinking,
That if you wanted to you'd
Run
A-
way,
(love)
"
And if anyone else could possibly feel
The shivers
From whispers
On my skin,
I'm fairly certain that their bones
would disappear from their body.
And if anyone else understood the way
my tears taste under sweet duress
The way you do...
(I mustn't forget to breathe)

"The moon would melt

"Radio waves

>w< I wish I could use metaphors mixed with characterization as well as you could! I think this one's my favorite so far<3
