Slow, Slowly, Slow
Do you remember the night that I came running, how the wind and snow gnawed at our bones? I brushed the snow off of my head, and collapsed onto your bed. This is where I made my home. And this is the place where I first kissed you, this is where I stumbled in your flames. Where your green eyes have met mine and they levelled out the sadness, all the fevers of my brain.

Tonight lets sail our boats out to the sea, there's no knowing where we're going, but just swear you'll wait and see. Let my bindings pull you tighter, leaf by leaf, closer to me. Its only there you should lay still, if you didn't know all that by now you never will.

My lover lays with me in grey light, slow, slowly, slow I bide my time. My nose pressed against your lips, thighs hard into your hips. Another soft, rapturous sigh. Slow, slowly, slow I bide my time. But why fight a battle that isn't really yours to fight? Why wait around forever, when you could just stay for the night. I'll stop tapping at your windows, trying to break down all four walls, if you could just stay for the night. Pray ‘Starlight, starbright, by sunrise I'll be gone'.

And there''ll be nothing left of me and yet, these pages will be tainted with my longings and regret. I'll sleep for days and days and days and dream that wind and snow is gnawing at your bones. That way it doesn't feel so bad that I'm alone.
