sleep in your own bed

shangri-la

if I must, I will

New friends, new life, new chances
Long nights and slow dances
Warm evening breeze
A soft hand to squeeze
And countless opportunities

We stop walking
And speak without talking

Fake love poems
And forgotten trees

My skin is speckled
With ghosts from my past

like how ice cold red wine is delicious, but not for company

they call him bill

Papa & Casanova
