#AtFirstKiss 💋 Vol. 61


#AtFirstKiss 💋 Vol. 61


ESCAPISM


I lie beside you listening to the rain and your breath


trying not to dwell in contemplation of loss and death.


Surrounded by all of the gifts that you have given me,


I know it's only my mind that keeps me from being free.


Though the shackles of my past should be more easily shed,


I doubt if even Houdini could escape from my head.


So, now I must realize that my saving grace is this:


my heart has faith that you will pass me the key with a kiss.
