mercy, mercy.

minutes and hours, shaking down the sides of the walls,
raining down,
such a fool
I spew trust on the walls, on the ground in front of me,
so slippery
the lust is thick like hot smoke
burning the eyes
co-dependent child on fire
our children are on fire
disintegrating, dispondency
she never thought she compared, but that's because she was so high above the rest
I would swim in the seas of your eyes for the rest of my life
even if that meant, a few hours until I would drown
I would lose myself in the constellations of the freckles on your body
just push me out into space, let me float forever
the memories of our hands on each other
the minutes and the hours,
raining down,

raining down.

I know what love is.

careful coma.

the endorphin surge
just when she says she wants to stab the clock together
order in and just decay/construct under the covers,
better than the first high of any junkie
the toss and turn
the fisticuffs of co-dependency
take the measurements
I don't care how long it lasts, I just need it tonight
and tomorrow night
and every night
marry me
