Before

It runs in my veins

This want

Need

The lust for flesh

For pleasure

For that fire

I need his breath in my ear

His hands

On all my weak spots

I want him to make me tremble

Make me moan

I've never wanted anyone

More

Never been so driven

Even willing to break

The laws set

By my mother

Snuck out

For the drop out

Drug addict

Does she know her daughter

Is a slut

With a dead end life

We're a match made

In hell

The inferno

Licks against my bare skin

As he holds me

How far

Will this need drive us

How much will we lose

How much will we gain

Would I walk away

Disappointed

Or relieved

The questions dance

Amongst the ashes

Of my skin

I burned myself away

In what I needed the most

Scatter me around him

Can we be one

Or are two halves doomed

To walk the earth

As in search of the other?

After

Soiled skin

Soiled sin

I took him in

Was that the greatest idea

I couldn't even tell you

My own name

Why try

Saying his

The smoke still poisons

My dying lungs

The Cotten lingers

How did this happen

Was that me?

Did I say that?

Do that?

Move that way?

I went too deep in the bowl

Am I coming out

Or just falling in?

The fall out

The ruins

Live in my chest

They stab my heart

And close off air

I'm killing myself

And no one can see

Not anymore

They all have fog in front

Of their vacant eyes

Just like

Me
