I should try to press on your skin and breathe into you as much as I can
To love you is to make a lasting memory of my embrace in your body
Regardless if I am in disbelief
Devotion is to pull the weight of your entire life onto me
A surrogate may not hold you
I’ll keep going until my blood is in your heart
Ode to Tazz
