Stand Still
Stand still.
Let me smudge blood to your cheek,
To liven up that pallid complexion
And give you a little of my smell.
Stand still.
Let my fingers stroke your silken hair
And decorate them with my fingers.
Let them be left with your smell.
Stand still.
Love my hands as they crawl through your neck,
To grasp your head closer to mine.
Let me smell your soul.
Stand still.
And welcome the breath of my nose.
As you welcome my soul, numb your brain,
Let your blood rush to your eyes.
Stand still.
As we kiss our way amidst the world.
Amidst the flow of the rivers.
Amidst the roaring thunders.
And the angry tempest of the evening rain.
