sins of a lover

The Worst of You

Something about it kills me
And still it thrills me

I know I can't live without it
And still I doubt it.

She takes so long just to get there.
Wasting time trying to prepare.

I'm wasting my time

I've been waiting a long time for something strong
I've been hoping that this time I won't be wrong

She sees the world like it's coming
I see it more like succumbing

She might cruel but I doubt it
I want to hear more about it

It's impossible maybe gossip pulls
me like gospel would
and I'm kissing the feet of criminals
it's subliminal
now I'm feeling despite concealing the dread

It's impossible maybe gossip pulls
me like gospel would
and I'm kissing the feet of criminals
it's subliminal
now I'm feeling despite concealing the dread

The Dread

The Joy

The Need

The Soul

These are the colors
In the shades that I fell for you
And the brush of your gifted touch

The glow of the snow
The crackle of our shoes
The hues of your laughter 
And your blues.

A towering city
Over our dirty room
Bundled against a creamy moon

Am I blind
To throw behind
My other senses
I spend time
Behind my old
Defenses 

These are the colors
In the shades that I fell for you
And the brush of your gifted touch
 
 the earth in your iris
The strength of your virus
Taken  for granted when I took you.

Break the branches
Grow the chances

These are the colors
In the shades that I fell for you
And the brush of your gifted touch
 
The mellow of sunrise 
The yellow of your sighs 
The shine of the drop in the morning dew    

Put me on you palette
And canvas
