clear drops of glass trailing down mocha colored skin
salty betrayal of my cold heart
i don't think it'll ever win
it's a battle
a sort of war
between your porcelin lips and my cracked cherry flavored kiss
but i can't say no for i've no place to go
and i'll certainly not stay in the marble embrace of you
