When he calls

I know my heart will mutter

My lips will still

and my knees will stutter

His tears will wash my skin 

with man's sin

I recall what we had been 

And will never be 

Because of me

The whispers, the sighs

The forbidden tangles of our thighs 

Interlocked lips and open eyes

I remember the nightmare in disguise 

Of a dream 

It would only seem 

For my skin is not clean

But burned 

By him

What do I say?

What will I pray? 

Forever distant, 

but still so Close

My heart is persistent

With his little woes

Can I just say goodbye

And finally die

With a new life from this place 

So that I can make haste 

To the path I need 

With my heart as a new seed?

When he calls

I will not stutter 

But my heart will flutter.

I'll say what I must to the eyes 

Who promised me the skies.
