INDULGENCE

In the naked moonlight glow, I see the me of tomorrow
Not the usual, haunting phantom, but a promise of things to come
Dance, dance, dance, dance, inhale this lovely fragrance
Unifying, unified, smother me until I die
Leave me as an empty shell, a husk of my younger self
Gods, you are beautiful
Eternity captured in a gaze
Nothing to do but surrender and unveil the past
Caress my flesh, undo the pain, amateur and professional
Elegance your instrument, render this moment a confessional

Ten, eleven, the innocence of youth
Held in place with rubber bands, tightly enough to wound
Your presence terrifies me

Nineteen, twenty, the bands have fully snapped
All my skin now flayed, my bones and muscles show
Made to choke on aftertastes of every sinful synapse
Every line a song, a poem, a beautifully tied bow

I talk and talk and break and break, no dance to stop this bursted dam
Silence me with kisses, screaming, choke me with your perfect hands

Laying down this long spent frame, I beg you break my heart
Out of breath, you turn to me, tear-burnt, tired eyes
Violet, you silly girl, I love you as you are
Embrace your past and future selves, and I'll share with you mine
