women
https://x-fragilelikeabomb-x.tumblr.com/ 2008 (nunya)
women have my heart
a woman has a voice that is smooth like honey
it drips down from soft lips above me
a woman has skin that is soft like rose petals
and nails that dig into my own like thorns
a woman has hair that shines in the sunlight
and hangs down over me during the dark night
a woman has eyes that are pure like the angels’
but if I look closely I can nearly see horns
