the world of celluloid & flickering light

By theBAC

the last film just dropped
it’s time to go home
leaving the memories of you here
the torment i feel & the
horrible thoughts of you out there
exploring the world without me
spending your nights in bed alone (hopefully)
the love we have is boxed up
resting high up on the closet shelf
existing only in that box
emotions floating around it
trying to hold onto those incredible emotions
like tying you to the bed & licking your every inch
indulging in your sweet flavor
gazing into your crystal eyes
holding your body close to mine
touching outside & in
steam coming off of us
climaxing in unison
and never wanting it to end
making love to you
everything fades away
only you & i
naked in the universe
uninhibited
never looking back
did you ever think it would end?
everything does
remember what we had
sweet dreams to you
take your time
and find yourself
nevermind about me
don’t worry about what i’ll do
i’ll be alone &
numb, eventually
getting back on my feet
to move on
however
understand tha it’s not truly over
really, we can have it back
someday
darling, you were (are) everything to me
and i want nothing else in the world, just
you
