Just Hush Now

on the spot (for him)

hush now

i'm waiting

until nightfall

just a little longer now

please

i know we cannot keep apart

i know our hearts our beating fast

your love

has me fixed 

my head

rolled back

your speech

warbled 

in the sea

this heat

that's overcome me

radiates from you

i cannot hold back

my whispered screams 

they've been stuck 

in my throat

for so long

i love you

i love you

i love you

but even that sounds weak
