I shiver at your touch
Adrift in a sea
Of distant memory.
It sounds like too much
But I cannot believe
How swiftly I retreat
Like a turtle into its shell
I’m scared of what will become
Of the heart’s evolution
As we revolve around the sun.
As we float on
This shabby raft of destiny
I know how fine we’ll be.
Four bobbing souls of gold
Intertwined at the seams
We’ll find security
Like a turtle into its shell
Aware of what will become
Of the heart’s evolution
As we revolve around the sun.
I want to
Be comforted
And consoled
But for some reason
You’re so cold.
As I age
And see my light fade
I look to you
But you’re so cold.
When The timing’s right
To heat up the night
I must ask
But you’re so cold.
What I want
What I need
Inflict more pain
After the deed
I can’t align
With your vibes
And sadness grows
Evermore each day.
The rift began
So slowly
But soon strikes
In ways swift.
I hate asking
So emasculating
To beg, plead, and coerce but
be turned away.
I feel numb
To your touch
Because you’re so cold
But it hurts more every time.
