Deadly sin

Deadly sins

    1. Strange, I can't recall if I had breakfast yesterday,

    I can remember what kind of pollens made you sneeze twice that Tuesday.

    If only you knew how many times I called your name when I was drunk,

 Or sober

    Or how many times I had to drive two hours back to stop myself from ringing your bell.

  I have only grown dumber 

    2. Gawking at her glowing skin in a two-piece red. An ethereal canvas  that could make a straight woman bend.

    Water trickles snake-like down your abdomen like rain on my window. Stunning blue orbs, wish you could lend

    Biting my lips, tried to look away when you caught my eyes. So embarrassed, choked ''hi ''

    3. Sing to me about your infatuation in the voice of Mr. Tortoise marked with his tattoo.

    Lie to me. Kiss him.  Babe, add me to the queue.

    Say all the right things when the lights in his eyes go dim and I can't see 

    Go against gravity if I need to; you will fall back to me.

    4. Stunning forest green eyes, a demi God body like mine. Striking! Try to keep me from you?

    Overqualified to be your crush. Watch the whole world stare when I am with thee.

    Your pretend, trying to play it cool. I could have anyone in the universe.

    I guess you could say you are truly blessed.
