Ease Your Skin

Let me tell you a tale of no ordinary people. Vessels of the endurance they used up to the core. One with a flawless, fake smile, the other with a sadist heart. They organized the rocks at the bottom of everything. Arrogant eyes tore them to pieces and they wandered forever searching for what they were searching for. Encouraging the naive and bashful to the submission, they've all but given up hope. Hope existed only to give them meaning, well, that's what they thought. He found his meaning in the green swirls of the musical oblivion her beautiful face orchestrated to all of his senses. His fingers changed that day. His head no longer heavy, forced to gaze upon the blue he never thought he'd see again. She pushed herself into thinking the opposite of reality, but fortunately for them both, she failed. It still stings his ears, the sound of the words in succession to her expression, given only to him and his alone. He overflows with greed, and her skin is the currency of his obsession. She mirrors his soul with every breath she takes. The words pour, flooding each other to the brim with emotion, emotions never felt by anything living. Sickness flees in horror to her touch. Pain runs with haste intimidated by his stare. Completion of the heart, broken down in the chemistry of their misery is the formula to the utopia that can only exist with their proximity. Love constructed two successors on the number 3 only to taste it's own medicine. Chemicals thread fabricated birds allergic to flight but addicted to lucid visions of an isolated future for two. He is Her, and She, Him. Capital for they are names, being no other names exist. Fret never, and laugh with eternity, slow down your ambitions and hurry your hands. He was rewarded with a Home. The idea makes him cry. She cries to hesitant movement, but he reassures. He left me with a message for you and I quote "Years mean nothing, a promise is a promise, it's safe to trust. I can beat time, if your hand's in mine. You'll see me when you close your eyes. Until soon, hold on to everything I give. My breath is yours, I'll breathe for two. Namelessly take me. Say it, and I'll hand you the future, the only one you want, the only one you need." He'll wait forever he says. I believe him.
