my heart is a chamber and you are quite welcome to stay here for the night
our lips taste of cherry wine and untold secrets
my fingers trace constellations on your skin
ocean tide rises in our lungs
we can burn the gates to heaven, melt the night into day
paint the sky a colour of love ─
of crushed roses and tender strokes of gold
our mouths are broken instruments
but what is there to say anyway
if your eyes were swimming pools then i would gladly drown
what fire burns in our veins;
light consumes us
as we sink into the arms of the sun
i kiss the rosy cheeks of autumn and say farewell
for with you arrived a new season
so freeze these crystalline moments
shatter the ice around my heart
let the ruby-coloured birds rush toward south
and we will unfold our hands tonight
