Paper Hearts

love

I want to fall.
I want to fall deep
into the wide blue ocean.
I want the waves to caress me
the storm to possess me
I want my body to float
these guns shall unload
so that my mind can't pull the trigger
just for once my feelings may flicker.

But my thoughts are the fire
and my body is made of smoke
my stars can't shine brighter
and your moon is something I can't hold.
And while I want your love to coat me
like an ocean made of blue
your face is just a blur
my fingertips can't feel you.
The flames burn me
and every spark insists
that you
do not even exist.
