May love undo my fragile soul
And draw impassioned screams,
So when the night descends on us,
Temptation will live to dream.

Let declarations of our love
Stretch out across the sea:
Remain a picture of desire,
To take away with me.

Entangled in a shining skin,
Let's walk through years of joy.
I'll watch you wade and cover up
Like every other boy.

But behind those eyes, a secret waits
To burst with sweet shy blue:
A color to prolong the truth,
An immortalizing hue.

Within stone walls, I'll wait with you
To mend your severed veins.
I've known your words, yet still you'll whisper
As if to silence the pain.

Don't worry my dear; I'll keep you well
In autumn reds and golds,
And our story will collide with time,
And fall into the folds.
