    paper is stained in fragile hand
    skin breathes where the gold
    slipped off a thin finger
    and now im free to cry
    as my naked hands wring themselves

    there is no justice for the fure of heart
    i eat what you have yet to digest
    i do not need your example
    for the warm-pressed paper sealed in my palm
    is sealed, and therefore irrevokable
    sealed, and therefore infinite

    my sin is purity while yours
    chews at the velvet fingertips
    that pressed the seal of my letter
    i am guilty of love
    while you deny me your passion
    what ive been pretending would suffice
    is inadequate to the fantasy ive provided

    hold me now, for my love is only to be wasted
    until the letter is opened
    the seal is broken

    Cryptic! Makes me wonder. I like the feisty spirit presented here!

    i'm diggin' it... especially

    'my sin is purity while yours
    chews at the velvet fingertips
    that pressed the seal of my letter
    i am guilty of love
    while you deny me your passion
    what ive been pretending would suffice
    is inadequate to the fantasy ive provided.'
