mere thoughts
about your face
of tender softness
bring a shudder
to my fingertips

an eager heart
for you to conquer
is the only
salvation
that i can offer

and to feel
such lips
could drive
an american
completely
forever
entirely
hopelessly
desperately
insane

im amazed to think
a small gesture of yours
could be the downfall
of me

i've never wanted
anything less
and could never want
anything more

beg your pardon
where did you come from
and how did you find me
nevermind
just tell me why
you arent here

paint me
with kishes
im yours
