I feel the edges
Of my heart soften
The middle, brown
And cracked
Like desert mud
Can I touch your lips
Just once
Can I lean in
And feel them
Against mine
Breathe heavy
Fight the urge
To go on forever
An Eternity
Nose to nose
To feel you close
I'll trace your skin
And cup your bones
But I can't decide
Let you in
Or keep you out
Can I touch your lips
Just once
Can I lean in
And feel them
Against mine
Breathe heavy
Fight the urge
To go on forever
An Eternity
Nose to nose
To feel you close
I'll trace your skin
And cup your bones
But I can't decide
Let you in
Or keep you out
Can I touch your lips
Just once
Can I lean in
And feel them
Against mine
Breathe heavy
Fight the urge
To go on forever
Maybe if the
Cracks go deeper
