Too Young, Too Fast

In the blackened sky our blood runs high, light is deceased and skin crawls. Drop the dagger 
and show me who I am. Shivering spines, we're so cold and hold me tight, don't let go. First 
touch. My dear, did you know it would be like this? Hold on, let's go. This night is ours and so 
young, so brave. We have all the time the world can hold. Why don't we wait? Come on, 
while the night is still young. Soft skin and smooth lips, I didn't know we'd be like this. Small 
words and a soft voice, the last kiss goodnight. "I love you." flies through the blackened sky 
whispering a silent lullaby.
