salty sweet kisses




can you taste me?
sweet & salty kisses from tears between my lips and yours
what will it take, to make you believe?
you think you're sacrificing, but i'm giving up for you

can you feel my beating heart,
fluttering excitedly wildly yet, infinitely calmer than yours?
what will it take, to make you believe?
for me it's happiness, for you it's fear

can you see me
see how this cuts me up inside?
what will it take, to make you realize?
i'm starting not to want to be alive

can you taste me?
taste my tears as my lips touch yours
you say this is for the best,
short term no, but long term yes
Then i say my darling,
these tears, they're all for you
