Don't leave, don't leave me
my words try to wrap themselves...

Please, take a step back,
back into the arms...

Words laced heavily with venom
we spit through our clenched teeth...

I am afraid...
to etch these words across a page...

We wait
patiently behind a closed curtain...

I'm here, right here
standing next to you...

This sickening scene
where i give up my pride...

Race across a ribbon
of candy caned roads...

His kiss
lingers deep...

Sitting on bench
lost out at sea...

I remember back when
you didn't care...

Time leaves a footprint
upon our lovely faces...
