When You’re All That Rocks Me to Sleep

So beautiful the sapphire waves
Crash onto porcelain ripples
While in a cold wood frame
It’s dim enough to see his silhouette
Quiet enough to hear him gasp
Breathing, so hard
Like the tears that rack my ribs
The next sunrise.
It’s so dazzling how you move, how we sweat together
And when it’s so beautiful
That’s the worst part
When it’s all I really do want
And it really is that beautiful
And I really do love him
And it’s almost as if he already knows
Screaming with my eyes
And it breaks my heart to hold him so close
To feel a soft brown burn
Tripping into my life
Ripping down my spine
Destruction all in his smile
And stumbling through an unshared memory
I wonder where I came to
Red blood bleeding by Mexican candlelight
And a northern shore
And when I arch my neck back
My yearning falls on deaf ears
'Cause as much as you love to stab me, with that smile
The blood turns to ice
From my burning skin on yours

But so beautiful, The sapphire waves
Crash onto porcelain ripples
Like you crash into me
Mexican candles flickering, Burn off bright
Wavering in your eyes as the burn wallows
Like French wine on my soft throat
And as Lucifer fell from a sparkling sun
Giving a court of flowers their leave
Make a terrible sin
Over these virgin lips of mine

I dare myself to move
Like today never happened
When you pulled yourself all over me
Just don’t forget to pretend
That this wasn’t all just a dream
