The beating of your heart,
Became my anthem long before,
The rhythmic rush of blood in my ears,
Dulled the sound.

I don't believe in the saying,
If you love them let them go,
I'm going to sink my teeth in,
To the hollow of your throat.

I cannot live with the darkness,
That permeates everything around me,
When I cannot call you mine,
This time around.

But darling, I'm so afraid of happiness,
I'm terrified that you'll leave,
It seems I know only how to be miserable,
But you've always been what I need.

I could never let you go now,
I could never let you leave,
Now that I've found my taste girl,
You're exactly what I need.

I'll be your alpha and omega,
The beginning to a beautiful end,
If you'll just stay here with me,
My most intimate friend.

I'll crawl into your body,
Settle deep within your bones,
You'll need an autopsy,
To dredge me from my new home.

They'll all tell stories,
Of the kind of love we have,
If you'll just stay with me girl,
We could forget our ****** past.

Even though it's been hours,
I still taste you on my lips,
I feel your warmth lingering,
On my finger tips.

Might I say your gasping breath,
And moans of sweet relief,
Felt like clutching fingers,
As your ecstasy was reached.

Now we danced around the subject,
Of where we might go,
Though if I'm being honest,
We both surely know.

And even though you want,
To take it very slow,
I know I quicken your pulse,
As I tug at your clothes.

For all the years we spent together,
I'm surprised how much we each,
Dance around the phrase,
I love you.

It's as though we play a game,
Where the first to fall back,
In love loses,
But I lost a long time ago.

I've let you lead the way,
And make your moves,
Before I plan out mine,
This time around.

I've let you do all the talking,
And tell me all the things you've done,
Before I tell you,
Stories of my own.  

You keep apologizing profusely,
And I keep dreaming of you.
As I wait for the next time,
We dance around I love yous.

I fought so hard for that first kiss,
That I was nearly frozen when,
I found you wanted more,
Than just my lips.

Oh, love, I forgot how it felt,
To run my hands alone your skin,
Or how alluring you can be,
When your breath comes in gasps.

I had your hair wrapped in my fingers,
And my teeth at the hollow of your throat.
You had your hands locked on my face,
While our hearts beat in rhythm.

I never imagined our reunion,
Would be in the seat of your car,
Or that you'd stop me,
Before I got too far.

You told me there needs to be a reason,
That I'll want you again,
But darling you couldn't imagine,
How sorely I want in.

My God girl you had me talking,
For fifteen odd hours,
About anything and everything,
Well into the night.

That's an hour for each month I was away,
Fifteen hours to catch up,
On all the things I wanted,
To say to you.

I didn't get it all out,
I know you wouldn't let me say,
I still love you,
But it was surely implied.

I know you fought sleep all night,
To tell me in jaded words,
That I'm still bouncing around,
In your ribcage.

I know there's still a spark,
Even after so long apart,
And that you feel the need to be held,
As you drift off to sleep.

I promise I can fight off all your demons,
With my warm embrace,
And maybe a kiss or two,
If only you'll let me try.

I know you implied that someone,
You surely need by your side,
To fight the darkness once again,
Will always be me.

And I know I said I'm sorry,
About a thousand ******* times,
But I'll say it another,
Thousand ******* times.

When last we said goodnight,
I drifted off to fitful sleep,
Sorely missing our conversation,
And dreaming of you all night.
