I am too young to die, but tonight I must drown in this…
“I am too young to die, but tonight I must drown in this liquor bottle in this night and in your arms. I will sink to the bottom of this love and lust that is only ours. I wont think of disappearing or aging or other horrendous thoughts, because that is then and this is now. Here with you, for once I am finally alive. I need to live while I am young and if I must take my last breaths I want them to be of the scent of your skin and the late summer night air.”
