Imagine Me a Lover

Every dose of you I take

I’m winding tighter

And getting deeper about myself

And swaying back and forth

Are you killing me,

Or keeping me alive,

Or do I just want more drama

Than you can give me off that stage of yours?

Am I finding myself

Or loosing her

You’ll look at me tomorrow

And your sigh will float over my neck

I might hold your hand tonight

In my dreams

Then how will I be able to look at you

Knowing I want what should make me blush

Is it always so hot in this room?

Funny how I’m cold all day

And then I sit here with you

We’re right by the vents

(Cold hearted bastard)

But I wipe away sweat

As my daily fever emanates off

This skin of mine

This skin you like to tease

Is she right, lovely?

Are you only teasing?

Are you so inclined to watch me

Die every time you hold her memory

And kiss her name

Funny how I forget all that too

When your hand reaches for mine

I worry for scaring you away

But your bolder than I could ever hope to be

“Imagine me a lover.”

You roll your eyes

Hey now, those were your words not mine

But the thing is

I do

I imagine it at the most inconvenient moments

A wonder it hasn’t gotten me in trouble yet

But I’ll never stop

Three years and I have yet to stop

So I’ll stop and sigh

And touch you again

The way you like to tease me

I’ll take what I can get

I’m pathetic like that

Because every dose of you I take

Only winds me tighter

And melts me faster
