Be My Last [God Created You]

A heart so happy beats in rhythm

With the sound of a thousand banging drums

And in it's wake is left nothing but the pleasurable resonance

Of a love once found within the solaces of dusk.

And you, my dear,

Are the sole reason I continue to breathe in chemistry

With my hands

I reach out and trace the countours of your face

Each line telling the same story

Of a strong God

Who it seems created you

Just for me to love and admire.

My emotions boil over in whispy waves

And I'm left numb to the wiles of the flesh

What I crave, I can have

What I desire, you loves me so

Blushing pink lips kissing your own

And each time, I get a little more addicted

I sink a little deeper.

You can't tell me God doesn't exist

For I feel His work every time you throw an around my waist

(blubber boiling over my jeans like some sort of sick joke)

But I adore how you don't notice my flaws the way I do

I can feel my future interlacing with yours

Just like the way your fingers fit perfectly

Between the spaces of my own.

God created you out of stardust and daydreams

And I've been entrusted with a gift so fragile

The gift of an emotion I ruled obsolete

A promise not so outdated after all

Kiss me once more and tell me I matter

Tell me inbetween each stolen breath

How much I mean to you and how you can see me

In white dressed and arms cradling a cooing toddler.

My only regrets

That haunt me like a plague of burning excuses

Are that you weren't the first boy to call me yours

For they didn't love me like you do

They didn't care like you do

I was a status

An object

A secret

Since that precious piece of me has already been taken

Tell me you'll thread me back together

And fill in the blanks as needed

Tell me you'll glue yourself to my side

Keeping one arm around me

And the other outstretched

To block the harms thrown at hazardous speeds

Tell me I'm your everything

Just one more time

And tell you'll be my last.
