again

no sleep when you are near
you've seen my valley
you have yet to see my peak

my senses have declared civil war
when you touch me
my mouth goes dry
my skin screams

I let go just long enough to say fuck it
fuck the day we let each other down
you push me to understand you
to understand myself
how?

im melting
i surrender and lay down
hands in the air
i bare witness

learning slowly to expect nothing
yet want everything

keep turning the pages in my brain
you've rattled my cage
let it begin

testing
