Aura-
Sweet acid candy flipping
Catching them undressing every pattern of potential
Only kisses with my eyes shut
because I've never been so lucky.

Pretty Please-
Can you hear me falling, crawling desperately?
Can you wrap sunflowers round my smile?
Am I allowed to love and be loved?
Will we lie and cry forever?
Can we always fill ourselves with the power to escape?
Would it be too much to ask if you could keep me here till morning?

Forever and After-
Braids in my hair and a kiss saved for maybe
Driven aimless with each breath of possibilities
Silenced in a smile until every tomorrow.
Twisting rhyme and reason simply selling out
the dancing would-have-beens to see you here tonight.

Out Of My Mind-
Pushing smiles on speed dials
Faster chances toward romances
Whispered kisses carried listless
Pretty silence isn't awkward if you're simply loved.

Crimes Again-
Whispered candy blisters through my skin
Painless aching shaking whole rooms
Held with stealth and shy eyes like you
Smooth like honey for the first time
When fire feels like tonguing snowflakes.

Fill In The Blank-
Growing younger every day
and all the way to subtle self-selling
Dimes for the prize and a face for her eyes
Stubborn sunburn tearing flesh in all the mess
Unborn mornings fastened tightly to clean bodies.

Epidemic-
I saw you winding eyes and
pushing cancer through your sighs
Trying sunshine, open wider
Spread disaster faster please
Her creamy lips aren't just for kicks.
