Story-telling

Tell me a story,

Of how I lost to you,

When we raced our words,

And I stammered,

I stuttered, when you spoke.

And I lost,

To your voice,

When we raced our words,

I swear, I could've said so much,

But to your voice,

I stammered and I stuttered,

For your voice,

I melted and I echoed. 

Tell me a story,

Of the time we closed our eyes,

I promised,

I'd leave them shut,

My eyes, I promised you,

And in a heartbeat,

When we lay still,

Under the moonlight,

In utter silence,

I only heard you,

And your breath,

Speaking to me,

Of the time, we closed our eyes,

And I heard you,

In this cold, I burned,

And I burst. 

With my eyes closed,

For you,

I was fire. 

For you,

I was rain.
