Thee godstar made flesh paints a picture thus,
Of warm and homely aquamarine with,
Skyline completed by his own sense of
self, But it is worth everything to me.
The life and the lived inside his own sex,
Stellar and esoterically hence,
Dance in minutiae with masculine lines,
They trace and follow love above all else.
Because I've tasted your blood and I've tasted your sweat,
And I want everything to do with you,
And I've seen your colours and I've felt your shape and I want to live inside of you.
Warming my unworthy hand with his smile,
Extending like a hug over his handsomeness,
The cosmos vanishes when he slumbers,
Oh paint a picture thee godstar made flesh.
Because I've tasted your blood and I've tasted your sweat,
And I want everything to do with you,
And I've seen your colours and I've felt your shape and I want to live inside of you.

Like the long winter where Lilliths aching body lies,
Your unwavering coolness dazzles and preserves me,
The distinct warmth that your starry body provides,
Holds my form and grace like the red sea.
This is you! Vincent my adored and beholden,
Every hill you might climb and bed you'll call home,
All the stars in the sky and gorgeous city's you roam,
Your beauties are aped by this world that can't begin to hold them.
Lillith may fall one day or at least she hopes too:
Lights dashing past her, lustful and boyish screaming traffic, a dizzyingly straight descent to her destination.
Faster, brighter,
Lighter, unlike the-
heavens and its stellar textures,
To move so quickly past her.
But she's not afraid.
The winter is a pool,
Handsome and warm,
It talks to her,
As she smiles and sings into it.
The pool is you.

Oh Vinnie Robertson you're the star in skylike eyes,
The cityscape I fall through when into your sea I dive,
And I'd hold you forever if it meant you could know how much I adore you,
I'm sorry for any disquietude I'd cause you,
But I love you I don't wanna give you up yet,
Because you could save me and I could save you,
If you could hold me while I weep into your arms,
Like I need to just like I need you.
Because I want you to affirm me,
And I want you to hold my breast,
And tell me that you love me,
That's enough for me.
Because I love you too,
And I'd hold your back,
And kiss you,
If you needed me.
And this song isn't a lot,
It doesn't have to be,
I love you.
But I love you I don't wanna give you up yet,
Because you could save me and I could save you,
If you could hold me while I weep into your arms,
Like I need to just like I need you.

If you needed my eyes I would give them to you,
Untie their thread to my body and offer them to you,
That's devotion to me,
Blindness.
Direct address to the heart and not the body,
Speaking to the stars in your eyes,
All I need is you here for me,
Vincent your love in my life.
And if you needed my tongue I'd talk forever,
Or silence myself to the servitude of your form,
If you needed mty arms I'd hold you 5ever,
As close as I could my everything my adored,
Direct address to the heart and not the body,
Speaking to the stars in your eyes,
All I need is you here for me,
Vincent your love in my life.
My body aches from my minds mistake,
To birth me,
And all I need is all I can see,
When you hold me.
Direct address to the heart and not the body,
Speaking to the stars in your eyes,
All I need is you here for me,
Vincent your love in my life.

Reflected in avalon the stark moon melts,
Milkwhite light blinding the nymphs and Dama del Lago,
Thrice the sights of the stars dazzle in waxy eyes and lips,
And I will always love you.
Men do not dare tread here but I do,
Gazing for reassurance and hearing celestial music,
Ringing sweetly and oscillating like breath,
And I will always hear you.
Half my body submerged in fleshy currents,
My arms and aching back healed by christaline chill,
Sensual thrills surround me words escape me,
And I will always hold you.
Is this forever?
Is this all of time?
Or is it just a second?
Which instance or eternity may I find in this recursive fractal of pure light.
Oh my moon and starry smile,
My black metal forest and lake,
The life affirming and warming stakes,
That I will always place in you.

I hope you don't rejoice in the excess of your grave,
I know what you want from me I know what you meant by this,
I'm not letting you have this over me,
You groomed me.
I'm never getting out of here,
So why bother?
I'm never getting out of here alive.
So I hope I never get buried alongside me,
And I hope I never see you in hell
And I hope there's some peace in death that will save me,
From being raped again.
And I hope you'll take responsibility for me when I'm in the hospital again,
Will you take responsibility when I'm over the edge?
Did you ever really love me?
Or was it all manipulation?
I'm never getting out of here,
So why bother?
I'm never getting out of here alive.
So I hope I never get buried alongside me,
And I hope I never see you in hell
And I hope there's some peace in death that will save me,
From being raped again.

What a privilege it is to circle this sun with you,
Your face your body my face and my body,
This life is so beautiful,
You are so beautiful.
I want to kiss your lips,
I want to hold your hands,
I want to make it clear with no sense of elaboration,
I love you.
I am overjoyed I am overzealous,
I am strange I am unreal I am,
Crying tears of joy,
Lachryma in my Amber Iris.
If I could lie which god knows I can't,
I would lie for you,
If I could die which god knows I can,
You would be worth dying for.
But I don't need to do that,
I'm here and I'm alive,
You're alive,
We're both alive and it's beautiful.
Did the angels kiss you?
Did they bathe you in milk?
Did they cover you in orchids and saintpaulias?
Did they scatter you in the wind?
How did I find you?
I am overjoyed I am overzealous,
I am strange I am unreal I am,
Crying tears of joy,
Lachryma in my Amber Iris.
You are so beautiful to me.
