Bloodshot

The last night before the rest of our lives
You dance before me
For a moment
For an eternity
You come closer
I feel your skin
The sweet sensation
That will never be beyond this
Our eyes meet
You see the depth in my gaze
I see the sympathy in your eyes
You’ll return to another’s arms
Another round
Another set
Another dance, my love
Let go of all that you’ve left behind
And stay in the now
In the touch of skin
In the nearness
My breath on your body
Your heat on mine
In the endless seconds
In this precious moment
Let me be lost in music
In the motion
In your spirit
In all of you
Let me be lost in this deception
Let me pretend
Let me live forever in your memory
Live in mine
In my fantasy
In this brief act of borrowed reality
Let me live with you
In these seconds that will never end
Forget reality
Forget your home
Don't come back
Stay with me
Stay in these fleeting minutes
In the dying seconds
The hurtful, blatant longing
That I will willingly suffer
Goodbye my salvation
Goodbye my dream
Goodbye my horrid addiction
