This is the place where the ground rushes to meet you
Soft as snow, rest now
And this is the night after driving all day that I knew I could love you
The night you showed me places you were afraid to go
And taught me what a beautiful face erases in the blink of an eye
Here is where desire spills through t-shirts like notches on your spine
And here is where you caught me blushing so loud a word
Need not be spoken
The smell on your fingers, the numbness of your lips
The lazy way you walk
We don't need to sleep tonight, one day we will all be ash
There are no more bathroom mirrors and covered up skin
No more gla** walls you have encased yourself in
Outside it is pouring and the snow is turning to steam
As I look from my third floor window overlooking the boston skyline
Swearing they will never take this from me
I will write this all on the roof of my mouth
