Current

darling, i am far too toxic
and the sensible thing to do
would be to leave
except i don't want to see sense because
i know that this thudding lump in my heart is caused by not being with you
and i see those emerald sparks that shoot upwards when our hands touch
and i know this is wrong
and that i'm hurting you
but i just can't shake this feeling that the reason i love the stars so completely
is because I've seen them all before in your eyes

your eyes
shining with the spark of possibility
and a smile like diamond that leaves me floating,
flying, take me anywhere
with you, i'd gladly go
please
take me to my death for all i care
with you by my side,
it'd be as sweet as angel cake

it's all too much
i need you, i'm drowning!
choking on the words i never dare to speak
as if they were salt water
waves of bitter regret
forever slamming against my chest
as i try to move forward,
the cruel tide forces me back
back here, back to you
we are both in pain but
it's not your fault
that i am a human ship wreck
destined to sink
leave me here
on the ocean floor i'll gladly rot away
