1 Cravings

The day we first met,

My eyes couldn't believe the amount of scars,

On your heart shining through your eyes.

I wanted to help.

I wanted to protect you.

I wanted to love you.

I vowed to do anything I could.

Because you mattered.

But, somewhere along the way,

Chasing the clock didn't work.

Time ran, and I was much too slow.

The dark caught me.

Trying to tame the dark in you,

Numbed my own feelings.

Now, we just engross our bodies into a mush.

In a bush, car, church, anywhere.

Because I,

Still want to help.

But. My own sentimentals are numbed and

This.

This,

Is irresistible.

The sweet anticipation right before the breaking high.

That makes us forget of the dark

For a good while.

And then once its back,

Our routine resets.
