In the night

 

In the night

Português

I’ve been swimming with her demons

Every night we won’t fall asleep

She seems to think I can hear her pleading

Though I’m not quite sure she’s saying please.

I think her eyes are dark with lust

But mine are closed as desire says they must

Her skin feels thin and torn like paper

I know her lines won’t guide me later

And my neck is bruised with fading teeth

I guess she’s never learnt to kiss

Her forehead reads «sorry bout the mess»

Though my lips are lost so it could be her chest.

However, I could not ever know

She’s screaming now but

Forgets where the screams will go

(we’ve grown old with our eyes shut)

Her fists are clenched where my heart would die

Had she not snatched it without batting an eye.
