  there is something starting, and i don't know why. a cozy mess in the living room where my legs wrap your thighs. a little confusion left behind the love seat where we fell. your hair flows into my mouth as my lungs gasp softly for air, but i don't mind tonight. i do not mind you grabbing my back or feeling my scars. every word and strong moan from your smooth cage encourages a beast i know lives inside me.
a beast that i hate.
a beast that i need dead.
a demon that ruins my soft head.

after i release
after my body bursts
and your soul is secondary
for the millionth time, we fall asleep.
you lay thinking there is never enough pleasure given.
i lay thinking there is no one that could complete me more.
knowing in the very back of my mind that this relation will not end clean or without mystery.
