you melt away

Don't talk to me
of right and wrong
I'm too crippled
to accomplish either
Don't bother
spelling it out for me
I've already traced every detail
I know what my sins are
but this isn't one of them
I wish I had the strength
to hold such a beautiful mess together
I don't want your
naked body on me
I just want to see
everything that you see
I need to drink deeply
from your hot blood,
your endless reserves
Please tell me
that I'm not that far gone
I just need
someone to believe
In the night
I feel your questioning eyes
Under the sun
I can see you melt away
You are real
but I will never know you
beyond the confines
of my convict mind.
