LIMPID / To the boy that helped me heal myself

I stare into his eyes & see his naked Soul The entity isn’t a shade, but colorful & bright Red like Flames, but not to scorch   It pulls me close & keeps me warm, I have no choice

I melt

His soul begins to thaw me from the inside out The warmth is stuck so deep inside I still appear frozen

I see how much he feels Giving away his heat I see how much his flame dies out Just trying to warm me I wonder if he knows his warmth is keeping me alive

And if to go without it I’d completely crystalize  

He stares into my eyes & sees my naked soul The contrast against his color   Seems so dim & dull As ugly as it sounds, it’s a work of art

Color seems much brighter, next to something dark

He sees how much I feel & How the darkness affects me He gives his flame as a guide

But flames die out neglected.

He wonders if I know how hard he tries   & that when he sees my soul through my eyes

He sees an Oasis

Overtaken by a storm He knows if he could burn the clouds Then We could both be warm

I want to live in paradise with you I want to swim away In the oceans made of my melted ice The brightest color blue Mixes with my red & tosses us gently, in purple waves.
