Suffocate This Monster
Suffocate this monster come,
Come!
Touch me, inhabit me,
Protect me like a precious wine.
Kiss me, breathe me,
Hold me tight.
What I would not endure, to travel the length your body one more time.
I would drown in waves that come to cool this fever that I have for you.
I stand naked on icebergs,
your gaze warms me like the sun.
If my pain were blood it would flood the rivers
It would stain mountain peaks,
I soar over the mountains, the lakes, the seas, the moon,
searching,
longing,
Hungry for your eyes.
Breathe love into me one more time.
I give the sea my tears to drink
Tears from my cheeks like raindrops falling
It is raining in my heart,
My tears are the ink with which I write.
Suffocate this monster come,
cover me like the sand covers the beaches,
Keep me warm.
Love’s violent thunderstorm,
Has left me numb.
Scatter your kisses soft and warm.
Strange recipe of fate
It takes me on a journey.
I am surrounded by nothingness
Electric atmosphere
the silence speaks
Nostalgic for your eyes.
Suffocate this monster, come.
