i think you're really beautiful,
your cheek on my pillow case.

someone's daughter dreams
about you. spreadeagled,
drifting on water like a ship with no anchor.
i want to feel gravity hold us

or being squeezed by a coil spring
keep going back, i'm all over you.

i want to feel your body on mine
i want to hear our lips press together
i want to leave this place
don't call me ever again.
i can't stand the sound of your voice when i can't feel your breath against my lips and your hands in mine.
