there was lipstick on your lips
it was obvious that you were in my neck
i bit your cheek then you screamed
when i woke you said you had the strangest dream
we were wrapped up in your sheets
my back was drenched in sweat
i wanted to reach over and hold you
i was afraid of your warmth
most of the roads i know are backwards
we got lost but we still had a lot of fun
i dropped you off at your moms house
we didn't talk much and we didnt hug
i stuttered words that sounded stupid
calculating every sentence as it left my mouth
we can draw pictures on the ceiling
and take them down when we lose all feeling
(everynight i stare at the ceiling
seeking validation for senseless acts
senseless sadness
tracing your shadow with salt
swallowing through your open mouth
spilling your secrets
letting our blood flow together
as one unit
in one house
cracking holes in the drywall
until all the light gets out)
