Boundaries
Hands and fingers feeling down
Cross the boundaries I laid
Sparks shatter my soundless world
Fulfill the wish I should have made
I want to feel like this forever
Lost in your loud world, all color
Dreaming through a lonely vessel
Living just to touch each other
Watch the dark hide your desires
Wrap yourself in reds and yellows
Lay yourself across my threshold
Forget the world and all its troubles
But time was slow and we were fast
Our fears rained down to drown our flames
We passed the day, refused the night
I thought of you and laughed and cried
All that's left - this thread of words
It's strong enough to pull you in
Or tie me up, make you a prison
I watch your mouth, it cuts my hands
Cross the boundaries I laid
Sparks shatter my soundless world
Fulfill the wish I should have made
I want to feel like this forever
Lost in your loud world, all color
Dreaming through a lonely vessel
Living just to touch each other
Watch the dark hide your desires
Wrap yourself in reds and yellows
Lay yourself across my threshold
Forget the world and all its troubles
But time was slow and we were fast
Our fears rained down to drown our flames
We passed the day, refused the night
I thought of you and laughed and cried
All that's left - this thread of words
It's strong enough to pull you in
Or tie me up, make you a prison
I watch your mouth, it cuts my hands

Author's Note
This is a poem I wrote close to a year ago, looking to get some feedback on it. I am certainly not a very experienced poet, but I feel this is one of the better ones I've written.
