Cross This Line

Your skin laced with mine
A silent affirmation
Time after time
I drown in this salvation
Beauty so unjust
Setting the air on fire

The mirrors beneath your eyes
The carnival of your soul
Exhilarates
Overtakes me beyond control
Welcoming the breach of your lips
The cadence of your touch

A bliss that’s double-edged
Bleeds these waiting veins
For every drop spilt
Is a crimson tribute
To the concoction of this love
Our privileged chemistry
Exclusive
Confidential

Seize this chance
Cross this line
That once barred the sun
By your hands
I’m ready to rise
