Nicholas Avila
I was able and willing
But to love you is danger
Your tongue drunk with venom
Though your color still moves me
And I’d break just to wear you
And I’d kill just to wear you
To love you is danger
But with time you’d have lost me.
But with time you’d have bore me.
But with time you’d have won me.
I have my body bent forward and…
Surrender my promise
Its weight bears too heavy
Surrender my fortune
My path chosen for me
Surrender my beauty
Dammit I’ll lay it before you
I surrender my lovers
My envy, my lust
Forever.
I have my body bent forward and up.
Blessed and cursed its work never done.
