I’ve been soaking in the after glow
Of watching magic unfold

Through the hearts of others

I lie awake tonight
While you sleep peacefully next to me
And I can’t help but think
How perfect you are

You chisel away at my walls
And I breathe easier knowing
That you see me for who I am.

I wish chastity could keep me from you
There’s something about being a sinner
When you’re around.

I fall in love with strangers
Admiring them as they are

My heart overfills with enjoyment
And I don’t know where to pour it all.

I feel as if I’m an imposter
Like I’m some sort of actor
but one undeserving
of an award

My role right now is routine and mundane
I am consistent in that at least.

However, every once in a while…
I’m drawn to the outside
the unknown.

I call on my demons
to play with me

Lead me with a dance
into a euphoria
that I cannot express with words further.

I am tangled in your aura
Like some web of seduction

Drawn to your poison,
I’ll risk it all
For the mystery
of you.

Within me is a flame that’s been ignited  
If I step too close I’ll get burned…
But this is an intricate fire
I’ve been wanting to play with…
A hunger I have yet to satisfy…

A danger I crave.

Let me enjoy you from afar.
Before things become too real.
Let me admire you
like the work of art you are.
