Awkward glances, crooked noses collide–and set off apologies.                                                                                                                      

And now we notice things                                                                                                                      

(Your breath smells wintergreen)                                                                                                         

And we’re drawn to each other like, unlike poles.  

                                                                               

My tongue now a scalpel,

My neck your Sistine Chapel;                                                                                                                    

Pinning each other down, our tongues wrestle,                                                                         

While your eyes pierce my soul                                                                                         

Like a meth addict’s needle.                                                                                                                 

Oh–now lightning strikes!      

                                                                                                             

We don’t care about death but                                                                                   

We’re gasping for breath, in the                                                                                                

Bubbly foamy broth of a witch’s brew                                                                                                      

We blew, you and I side by side,                                                                                        

Together at the furnace of life;                                                                                                 

Together forever- we broke apart.    

                                                                                                     

(And now my breath smells wintergreen)                                                                                            

And now our eyes like traders’ gleam.                                                                                      

For I gave you a flash of eternity;                                                                                                  

You gave me half of the infinity;                                                                                                                

All forever etched in our memory.
