You lived in my dreams,
Golden and rare,
An intangible disaster,
wrapped in latex and rock and roll.
Eyes locked across impossibility,
fantasy became reality,
silk sheets,
hot-air balloons, and bodyguards,
Last time I checked,
I had a normal life.
Two kids and a husband,
Mundane employment,
and daydreams.
Stuck in toilet stall,
tears streaming down my cheeks,
mascara clotting on wet eyelashes,
I remembered us.
Corsets cinching-
you unwrapped my laces,
and inhibitions
waited on your ferocity.
You brought me Closer,
I created my own pretty hate machine.
Back to mundanity,
I wait for the dreams to descend.
