choking on stars
By AnotherWitheredRose
im scared by the scars of time
if our callased hearts were to collide
could i part my chapped lips enough for yours to fit inbetween
could i re-open the wounds of love
to let these emotions bleed
i want to feel this
complete with the pain
if i was numb there wouldnt be anything to gain
i want to feel you
under your body i shake
your. hands . awake. me. from .my slumber...
could you strangle me alittle harder...i can still breathe
theres something magical about your eyes
it feels like im falling from the sky
.......picking up speed and choking on stars.......
maybe i dont know exactly how much it means to have you here
but as you pull me from my dark illusions theres nothing left to fear
i think you hold me just above goodbye

i love the end line, i love it all... i have been choking on stars and now i want to be numb, it just shows how different the perspective of some can be, yet they can relate still. Amazing choice of words, variety of structure, i cannot fault it!
