It has happened before
And this won’t be the last
It comes out of no where
It consumes me so fast
I can feel a tide shift
Her light pulls me ashore
My senses are brewing
And I know I need more
Don’t get excited
Nothing has changed
You’re gonna get hurt
You’re only to blame
Her scent fills my lungs
My heart starts to race
Feel the heat off her body
See a glow on her face
Not too close, back up
Remember last time
It’s not what she wants
Her thoughts aren’t like mine…
My fingers start tingling
As they recall her skin
My eyes trace her curves
My mind starts to sin
Look away, shake it off
Things aren’t like before
The bed’s always made
No more clothes on the floor…
Butterflies fill my stomach
Knees start to give way
Muscles begin to shake
Animal rattles its cage
You know you can’t win
So why play the game?
It’ll just crush your spirit
Leave you riddled with shame…
My mouth starts to taste
of lime from her tongue
I hear the walls echo
Songs our bodies have sung
It’s not gonna happen
Get it out of my head
Down onto these pages
Not meant to be said
I start to calm down
As reality sits
This fantasy’s not real
This doesn’t exist
I’ll head back out to sea
This storm has passed
It has happened before
And this won’t be the last
