infinity kiss

you left me standing

what it's like, you will never know.
every high and every single low.

my heart and head a game for two.
and I taunt the knife from me to you.

I give you my head to hold with your left,
and my heart to hold with your right.

they both throb with desperation, don't they?
they both yearn for joy and not decay.

I will spill out gallons and gallons of molasses,
it will leave my mouth like huge masses.

I give you my head and my heart;
in which, you see, both are falling apart.

and so I pledge to you my dependency.
my problems and promises are mostly tragedies.

I want you to take your right with my heart and hold it against your chest like you do when you feel ache.
I want you to take your left with my head and hold it high above your head like you do when you need a break.

I will watch how you handle them both.
so delicates they start, what troth.

and further and further your drift with my head and heart.
they fall in your hands, they fall apart.

you watched me cry,

you watched me bleed,

you watched me want to die,

all you did was feed.

you left me standing in my own molasses covering my feet.
you left me standing in the world I knew I wasn't going to defeat.

you knew I wasn't cut out for this.
you didn't think enough.

you left me standing...
