Staring at the plastic stars,My ceiling burns with heat from Mars,With songs along to sweet guitars,This sacred place that we call ours.My fingers trace your body lines,As your eyes wander over mine,Our bodies one while we're entwined,And making such a bold design,Relaxed without the stress of time,We're fine.In the darkness ...
