Shall We Dance Again

Dare I take another sip? Shall I let you consume me once again? My lips meet yours, and you fill me with all your poison. That sudden warmth that courses through my veins. At first its all fun and games, we laugh ,we joke. You intertwine yourself with mine, and away we begin to dance. Will we stumble? But of course. Will I be forced to the ground again? Perhaps. This game we play when I'm alone, you always know when to appear. This thing that lies inside my chest and wants to feel your warmth. But this thing that lies inside my head, remembers every wound you've ever left. Oh man, here comes, that time when all just spins, and all I know is you, I feel. Do I let go and let you lead, or shall I push you out. I press my face to yours, I let my gaze meet yours. My fingers find yours again, I hope this time is different. I'm tired of the spinning but I'll ask you for another dance. This time the bottom and I, I hope we don't meet.
