If I decided to bring you closer

It would only drive me farther away.

It would isolate my heart from my brain.

I wouldn't be in a position to make wise decisions.

Your lips are red like a fresh incision.

They cut my cheeks like glass,

As I watch your eyes glisten.

They said to look away, but you should know

That I never listen.

Although,

you're an angel with sinful needs.

I hope that before he lays you down,

He changed the sheets.

Because I know how hard it is to sleep with a dirty conscience.

I hope that on your way out,

He walks you to your car.

I hope he asks how you are,

And listens too when you're not.

I wish you the best because

That's all you deserve.

I wish you the best because

It's everything I never got to give you.



My name is Adam,

I don't need another Eve.

I don't know what I'm supposed to do.

My paradise is nothing without you.

I'll bite every apple, every forbidden fruit

If it means sharing your presence,

Us being in the same room.

I swore I'd never sin again,

but then I saw you.

A desire inside flourished and grew.

I watered the lie and hid the truth.

My secret is,

I wish I wasn't invisible to you.

I wish that when you look my way,

it's my heart that you see through.

That you see my intentions are whole and true.
