Let me walk around your darkness
While I tan in the glow of your smile
The thoughts behind your eyes when you spread me on display
and stare so intensely, I leak for you
I lounge in your light
as your laughter sparkles across the sheets
but I crave your murkiness
your intrusive thoughts at 2:11 am
am I invading your synapses with recollections of the last time and the time before and the time before that?
I covet your depravity
While I gleam in the luminosity of all your frustrations, disappointments, and anger you’ve left
inside
I desire the shadows of your open book
wrestling with the ideas you won’t speak illuminated by my unspoken consent
to drown me in the shade of you
released to the radiance of us
balanced by the twilight dusk of the unknown
Wandering & Wondering
