I blame apiphile for everything about this other than the fact that it's shit.

Scrawl a city across my skin;
carve its name on my arms with a knife.
Give me a city like a smoky dark sin;
a city, a living, a life.

Lay a city on my lips like a sacrilege;
I'll breathe it, I'll bleed it, I'll grin.
Dance to a city with my hips til its fingers dig in;
a bruise, a blessing, a sin.

Leave me homesick for a home that I've never yet had;
leave me singing, and sighing, and wrong.
But lead me to London, and I'll only go mad;
in the ways that I was all along.

I'll edit it tomorrow, if I decide it's worth it. Right now I just wish this fucking headache would go away.

I done wrote a thing. Gimme concrit?

Meet me in Cardiff on a summer's day
When the daffodils rear gleeful in the sun.
Meet me in Cardiff and we'll run down to the Bay,
Slick ice creams sweet against the tongue.
Meet me in Cardiff on a summer's day.

Meet me in London on an autumn day
When the trees weep red and golden by the Thames.
Meet me on London Bridge and we'll meander for the day,
Kiss cocktails where the streetlights glow like gems.
Meet me in London on an autumn day.

Meet me in Paris on a winter's day
When the people fur like catkins in the cold.
Meet me in Paris and we'll snug in a café,
Drink together until midnight where the bridges arch in gold.
Meet me in Paris on a winter's day.

Meet me in Cardiff, London, Paris,
I'll laugh with you in Madrid, New York or DC.
Meet me where you will just so long as you will meet me,
We'll navigate our lives by the stars that we see.

And I got a funny feeling
There’s a wound beneath your skin
And you’re bleeding as you’re breathing
So open up and let me in

And you’re delicious and destructive
So I want you to let me in

Hit me harder, I can take it,
Hurt me worse, see if I scream
Keep trying, you can keep trying,
But ain’t nobody gonna make me scared like me

So get me up or get me down
C’mon baby, drag this love around
Because I know I’ll get by on my own
But I can’t get along without you

Throw me down and fill me up
We can fight and I can buck
I’ll throw you down you’ll open up
Twisted wishes are all your kisses mean to me
