Infection
I want to stay looking into your eyes forever
 But I dont know if forever would be right.
 Your poison lips rested on my own
 And as I lick it away, 
 It tastes strangely sweet.
 To be held, to be loved
 Its all we want in life.
 Its something we crave
 Because were broken.
 I want to heal you
 And breathe you into my lungs
 But I dont know how.
 I am so paralyzed 
 From the pain thats lying there inside.
 And the poison now running through my veins
 Is taking its course throughout my body.
 Running through every crack and every pore,
 This infection is making me oh so numb.
 I dont know how to feel.
 Your eyes cant stray from mine
 And your arms are outstretched around me.
 It feels safe and warm
 And I slowly breathe you in
 For just a moment.
 Till Im consumed with this infection
 And I can hardly breathe.
 My head is spinning and I feel as if I might faint.
 If I should fall to my knees,
 Will you catch me before I land?
