Tender

[dasmadrigal]

Slip in
Take off

Try my skin
And cinder soft
Light eyes
Glowing wonder
Strange world
When I am under
You

Try
I tried
And I may be denied
Ghosts
Strange ghosts
Shatter the memory I have
And soft
soft skin
stranger's eyes that I'm sinking into
Into somewhere new
Into everything I am
And you

Shame me
You shiver me
You toss me
And I'm aching for your touch
I wonder

Nowhere
To nowhere fast
Flying by it all
In sparks of incandescent light
Starless moon and scattered flight
Glowing
Glowing all around you
And you

Shame me
You shiver me
You quake me when I'm aching for you
And I
I wonder
I really wonder
About it
About you

Talking like these hands I wrap
Around you quiver as I find the
Place where you hid into the folds of
Something iron-cold and unforgiving
All Around you
All Around you

You shame me
You shiver me
You shake me when I'm waking
And linger in my mind
You

You unnerve me
You bring me out
You see that there
Is something here

Let me out
Let me out
Let me out
