For days with no end;
Hungry and thirsty,
I was without poetry and you…
My heart imagining;
The memory of your hands,
Touching me with love,
Shaky and slowly caressing my tanned skin…
Your blue eyes looking tenderly, begging for mercy,
And surrounding us is a thousand stars…
They were the witness to this last night.
How I imagined to make love to you one last night.
But I know then I would never have the courage to leave this town and this state,
The furthest I needed to get away from you and us,
I knew I would suffocate,
You keep breathing love,
I share my mask
And we keep falling
Out of love
And I keep sharing
Holding my breath
And you are in a coma
You don’t know we are falling
Or I can’t breathe…
