Nobody Wins

Your blue gaze travels like a warm whisper across my face
Promising things you can't deliver and asking for things you don't want
These moments with you seem to span for an eternity and end in the blink of an eye
Fingertips trailing the softer parts of us, searching for absolution
sometimes finding it.
The distance between us is the sweetest agony,
preventing the dissolution of the union,
keeping the garden from growing too small.
We have nothing to fight if we're not fighting entropy
Circling each other like cornered wolves,
picking out the weakest points,
not stopping until the taste of blood whets our lips.
Nobody wins, we both lose.
