IN WHISPERS OF LOVE

of big hugs and nuzzling noses
of naked innocence and cuddling poses
of hearts and stars in your eyes
of tears and softness in my own
we are more tangled,
more twisted
than we'd like to have shown
exposure is too much
and life is not the same
absence does nothing to you,
but here i still call out your name
in the shadows of darkness
i want only you and you
wrapped up in blankets
(and me on top of you)
failing to remember
what tore us apart
what matters what worsens
as long as we lie, in whispers of love,
of comfortable memories
and moments that shine
of time worth living,
of wanting you to still be mine,
though lacking in existence,
i'd still want to pretend
that life with you,
never had to end
that the passion is still there
that the electricity still holds
that you never left me here
feeling so bitter and cold
