Raft

I'm adrift in your mind
Trying to dock against your body
Before I lose myself in waters
Deeper than I have known

Too still for my fortified raft

Without

He opens a door
To a woman I can't see
Without him
A woman I can only become

Without him

Share

I'll die if that wasn't
The best you've had
Not from jealousy
Just guilt

I meant to share

Rites

I hope to find the love
That teaches me I was
Only addicted to you
Until then I'll grieve my delusion

With all the rites and ceremony

Direction

There's a gas station on both sides
Going south and north
She'll be different
But serve the same purpose

Don't blame her for your choice of direction

Return

I left to return to you
The man I laboured dark years becoming
Is a starting point in your light
You were always enough for me

I just struggle with destination and journey

Ugly

When you met me
I was quite ugly
I had not yet been given time to
Bronze under your light or

Soften in the wake of your wind

Arc De Triomphe

The arc works by sharing in the load
Of everything between us
Making us stronger than
Either of us took on an easier life alone

It's simple science why we've triumph

Start

I'm sorry I was spent so long
Being funny
Taking up time I could have spent
Helping you feel as open with me

As I felt with you from the start

Less

I don't want him
To feel lesser than me
I just want him
To stop feeling lesser of me

How do I get there

Back

I thought of you
She had no clue where my mind was
Or why I was trying so hard
To please her tonight

I was trying to bring you back

Devoted

She's into me
I can't say I've had my best go
But I'd say she's convinced
I'll be more devoted than

Those guys who didn't realize what they had

For One

He's into me
A bit too early to take
As genuine
A bit too strongly for him to conclude

These feelings are for one woman

Struck

How exactly do you expect
Me not to be awe struck
I'm sorry, more than you know
That I am frozen here in what will become

The moment I first laid eyes on you

Entire

Don't fear it
You will not sink
In the ocean of my desire
Lay your entire self on me

Let my waves deliver from your shores

Pleasure

I want to pleasure your body
With my tongue
Almost as much as
I want to pleasure my tongue

With your body

Howl

I'll call out to you every night
Until a new neighbour complains
I can't keep this howling down
Under my skin

Better you hear it now anyway

Picnic

She tastes like fresh berries
Smells like an empty park
On a day with no humidity
Like I could just stay here

Like I'll never have a better picnic
