verse one — vergence of failed lineages

groping in darkness
finding us
solace in cursed woods

verse two — piercing grey eyes

escaping colors
we immersed
smearing our real worlds

verse three — craving her grip

she lured me to realms
of too much
and of not enough

verse four — a different lingering vibe

just like a warm bath
she met me
where touch craved her most

verse five — our time in smiles

soft, yielding dancer
I held you
synched by our music
