Splash
crimson
The only colour bath that cleans me of my sins

It never gets old
Each night with you
Your soft snores somehow soothing
Compared to a night alone
In a bed made for two.

I envy the binge
Swollen pupils
Red nose
The amount of love you give
The ecstasy you receive
I wish for once i could be that
The happiness you crave
The ****** you need
Spending night after night
Entranced
Spending week after week
Longing
For another hit
Of what ive got to give

The daunting task
of promising your love
without wanting to promise
you'll still be around
to give it back;
Take each step with grace
take each fall with pride
I'll follow you
until the end of time

Have I driven you to the edge?
Have I plucked each plume from your back
And told you, you'll manage?
Have I dug our grave months in advance
Each night i refused to pray?
Have I ruined us?
Did I break us?
Is the sun finally out for good.

With demons at my toes
I curl my feet round yours
Deep within our blanket igloo;
I can trace your bones,
From one shoulder to the next
Until reality comes spiralling forward
And every dark corner
Is slowly forgotten.
Each night I bury my worries into your neck
With a soft slow kiss
As you relish in your deep slumber;
The only time I don't mind
Going unnoticed.

Told to choose this way or that
I'm ****** either way
Why still try to win?
