Lovers@Midnight

Deep, dark and desolate

And it slashed me like a blade

A bit too predictable, all of it

Slashed wrists and bruised fists

The both of them, wanting refuge

From the cold and cruel winter blues

Going berserk, but together

All is not lost

As the fragments gather

It’s all a bit cold, as the fingers turn blue

They’re lying together in a bed

In a room

Filled with Silence

There bodies, motionless

but not dead

Cuddles, hugs and kisses

And breaths like hisses

They’re together, not far

In a world nobody knows of

A world wherein nothing’s broken and nothing’s ajar

Togetherness is not a virtue

It’s real

The breaths are warm and cozy, and they’re turning drowsy

It’s peaceful in there, nothing’s lousy

The frost isn’t over, but they’re jovial

The both of them are alive and kicking

He’s licking her lips, and sweat’s dripping

It’s all real…
