Sweet as I notice the random lines connect,
I'd lean at your side forever.
The summer heat heaves on my skin
But the shadows in your kiss soothe the sting.
I'm running in between silhouettes-
Displaced but invigorated.
These fleeting moments shed like some shifty serpent
I try to leave a trail
So that if you come back, you can find me
Venomous Hansel and slippery Grettel
My sloppy words burn like nettles.
Press pause and hold thought-
Your eager teeth are chattering,
Even your skeleton knows you've gone too far
A regret right to the bone.
When all this busy time, I'd simply like to shut up
And just walk you home.
