i miss descending into those vows beside the hiss of your night light
my skin melting against your duvet and desire
for a fleeting pleasure;
nothing more, nothing less
when i pried you reassured me nothing was wrong
i was overthinking us
the simplicity of our being left me with more questions than answers
i should have let go before i got lost in you
too deep the water i tread
for that serpent’s tongue left me longing
longing for your lies again
my perception of love ruined but i had you to fall back to
in lust and lone
i was safe within your glow and complexion
i was far from a sunken ship
erebus steered clear of your warm embrace
i swallowed you whole
