We promised never to lose ourselves,
except in each other;
but even then,
just for the orgasmic moment
when there's nobody alive but us.

In bed, we lay insane on top of each other,
practicing being dead.
When you closed your eyes, I said,
"I'll cut my wrists if it'll make you laugh one more time."
The beauty of your smile made me cry.

Do you remember when we stopped caring what other people thought?
If ever your eyes lose the spark
that makes me think of galaxies and gods,
I'll die, I will surely die.

They said to be careful what we wish for,
so we asked for the stars--
At night, we snore into each other's faces
and fly towards the sun.
