flower dresses are wilted roses on the floor, we use our hands to hide from the world but to find each other interconnected protected in each other but the world sees us hiding because they are always thirsty to tear apart anything they cant understand.

"Kiss me until you can't breathe."
"Runaway with me. Die with me. Live with me, I don't care and I dare to leave this behind us if you do?
