ascend

i don’t want your sympathy,

i want your hands on my body,

your lips on my skin.

i want your voice in my ears,

your breath on my neck.

come over,

come make me fly,

make me forget the worries that plague

my damaged goods mind.

make me feel

like i’m the only one,

like i’m your only one,

even though i’m not.

elevate me.

make me ascend

out of this plane and into the next.

help me out of this body,

out of this soul,

come with me to the stars.

hold me close,

press your body to mine,

chest to chest and legs to legs,

hips to hips and mouth to mouth,

touch me, dear,

love me,

kiss me,

cover me in your lipstick, in your scent,

in your love or in your passion, in your affection or in your desperation, i don’t care,

just need me like i need you.
