| Let me love you Let me settle across your surfaces gentle and insistent as dust elemental atoms gathered at your seams and corners lay myself humble against your natural grains Let me love you I want to bend into your attention like a radio tune you didn't intend to learn urge your mouth around the lyrics of my name again and again i can be your classic for the ages Let me love you |
| Let me press my fingers into you keyboard confident asdf jkl; without looking, I would ink your best intentions across torn parchment read the epic tale of your heartbeat until the gilded edge of slumber Let me Mist the slope of your brow speckle your flesh with salted dew course your sculpture of spine temple, cheekbones, your neck feel me collect in your basin and ravines There glittering gems embedded in these kisses I will use them to adorn your crown |
| There's frequency that hums inside my chest steady your navigation here steady your Let me love you with the urgent howl of birth grit my teeth, nurse your dreams forgive the agony of stretching just to see the wonder that booms behind your eyes Let me unwind these alloy springs convert anxious physics into faithful mechanics Let the shoreline of these open arms harbor the vastness of your seas Let me Let me Love You (c) Dasha Kelly 2012 |
