[ for danielle ]

take me to your paradise

kiss me in the blue moonlight

take me away, my hope in hell

take me to your paradise

  ———

moon-drunk, flower-bewitched, delirious with dream . . .

  ———

no need for elaborate words, no need for lies

you are my, and i’m your diamond lost

we’re under the same night sky, under the same sun and moon

right now, i’m almost at paradise

  ———

wide eyed, you look at me

set on fire in a silver dream
