summer flowers | red

the moon & the stars

I'd rip my skin apart
if you wanted to kiss my bones,
I'd cut my veins open
if you wanted to drink my blood,
I'd tear out all my lashes
if you asked me for a wish to blow;
I'd defy the gods
just to get you into heaven
and walk through hell
to get you out of it

god, I'd kiss the floor you walk on
and rip flower petals
to soften every step you take,
I want to be the air you breathe
and swim under your skin
just like tattoo ink

I'd burn my eyes staring at the sun
if that meant I could write you a poem
describing how it looks like
and steal every star from the sky
to make you a shining bouquet
with them

my heart is so full of you
I can hardly call it my own,
I knew you yesterday
and I could swear
I've been madly in love with you
for years

you're made for me
and I'm made for you,
as two hopeless romantics
waiting every day to reunite
just like the sun waits for the moon
until every sunset to kiss again
