huacachina + paracas, peru

i take my licks like a man, facing forward
i made my bed – it wasn’t yours.

–

–

|59|
i collapse with you into our mirage.

–

–

how soon we’d forget what we shared
you said you’d always be mine
i nodded and smiled, tongue out of my head

–

–

|60|
once more you’re inebriated
and i’m unliberated

–

–

is this love or the love of the chase?

–

–

|61|
after seven years of travel when do they disintegrate?
do you believe in extraterrestrials?

–

–

in folding sands, our castle no more
the magic of sleight-of-hand

–

–

|62|
you could have fallen so easily off of that cliff.

–

–

what was your name?
was it something like me?

–

–

|63|
if this world has no meaning,
then how did i find you?

is this love?
