BREATHE

Breathe me in and I shall hold you
Upon your lips I’ll dwell
Within your secrets shall I sleep
Your dreams I’ll never tell

Fashioned from a darker reason
From within is my embrace
All scars and tears of you
I’ll wear upon this face

A kiss I place upon your hand
A vow branded in your heart
The last rebel of circumstance
Has now been torn apart

Shifting back to reverse the words
I spat through broken teeth
“Forgive me!” is all I can scream
As my soul escapes its sheath
