Author S. K. Nicholas

they say we’re happy like murderers 

a perfect storm of 

lust and insanity 

smeared across 

cruel, blood red lips 

there’s something between us 

that they’ll never understand 

there’s a way of being 

that goes beyond mere 

ways of seeing 

together, we burn like flares 

flung into the darkness 

points of origin 

shining through the void 

we can’t be denied 

and we can’t be ignored 

drinking on the porch 

making love in fields of corn 

we’re physical 

more than just 

umbilical 

our hearts belong to madness 

doomed to the fate 

of forever being apart 

immoveable like mountains 

these obstacles will always 

stand firm 

but tonight, tonight we fight 

for what’s in our veins 

and oh, how it flows 

how it pumps, so steady and true 

so beautiful and 

pure 

so lets get lost 

lets give in 

to what lies beneath 

once more
