:take me


if i told you you were right, would you leave your life tonight? drive baby, drive down the coast. i'll kiss you while your hands are on the wheel, your eyes checking the mirror. the sky is ours tonight. i'm high, thanks to you. geographically, mentally, sexually.

take me, you crazed godforsaken shit. take me because this all i am. this is all i will ever be. i've seen what i know and i've seen what i choose. and i choose you. i choose the perfect globe of your skull under my fingers. your fingers under my shirt. animals don't escape to somewhere. they escape from something. and what are we if not animals?

places are not locations. places are people. people mark the significance of a place in my heart. if i were here by myself and i stumble upon a revelation, then this place would be me. you must never forget yourself baby. you are all that you have.

love yourself the way your womb wants you to be loved by him. and he will love you the way the moon loves the earth. he will circle you, chasing after the half light on your face. what he would give to see your smile. honey honey, what i would give to see that smile. that one thing that heals me. easing the weight balanced on the stepping stones of my spine.

i'll curl my lips up for you. curve my back backwards into your arms. arch my neck in search for the spot behind your ear. you sweet scented demi god, take me.
; take me because i already took you.
