Rum Tinted Headaches

A thousand miles of separation
Twelve inches between the two of us
Your eyes are open
Mine are closed
Our lips will touch
But the reason continues to escape

You grasp with two hands, Heart shaped Kisses
I push away continually, Clear coated Misses

Five times a lover
Mirror image twins
Five times a lover
The joke is bittersweet
Lip biting in time to the stares we recieve
You pull, I push
But only half heartedly
Your first offence you cant conceive
The need to explain escaped
The effort you require is not worth the reward
A tinfoil heart on a platter of dust
Remains of a once lukewarm feeling

You grasp with two hands, Heart shaped Kisses
I push away continually, Clear coated Misses

Sun warmed backs
Rum tinted headaches
When all we have left has rusted
A broken promise to remain faithful
Has bee etched in sand and given a name
Imitation
