Vodka Tongue


Your vodka tongue So toxic, so young Slithers its way into my thoughts Hides my fears Gives me ten shots Of pure toxic lust And I get lost, so lost In your pierced blue eyes And the lies they hide And the fantasies we share Over the course of thousands of years Lust and bloom Love so new Takes over the heart Takes over me And forever I get lost in a sea Of confusion and desire You’re such a liar, such a liar When you walked away that day As the rain poured And there were no words left to say God, how I crave your skin The touch of your soft hands That melted against mine When it was hot And everything seemed fine Everything seemed fine Except the ruby in your lips Were more red than they should be And your vodka tongue Shot fires out of a gun Hit me straight in the heart My body didn’t just fall It fell apart Broken pieces shattered the floor What was once here Isn’t any more
