Yotam Perel
Haunted Mansion
Visits not too drawn out
Just enough to really flex
Those intimacy muscles we possess
To impose less
To tangle our limbs and confess
Vast truths
To be willfully obtuse
This risky tight rope act
Is straining my core
Disturbing the slumber
Of thoughts I abhor
But walls ends up with doors
When rummaging through sores
To sort disorder sorry I adored
I can't carry you
I can't care for you
You might find it scaring you
I don't know why I'm telling you
Let's see how long we can stay
In this haunted mansion
Cause just this small
Fraction of love feels
Real good
And it should
So maybe lets just
Hold this embrace
For a little bit longer
To get a good taste
Indulging the phase
To knead at your face
No need to belittle or
Needle our fate
Let's just wait
I can't carry you
I can't bury you in my mind
Its scaring you
I don't know why I'm telling you
Lets see how long we can stay
In this haunted mansion
Cause just this small fraction
Of love feels real good
And it should
So knock on all the wood
For me for us
Let the ghosts watch over
With disgust
