Red Strings Align Us: The Surrender To Love
Red strings align
It was you I've been assigned
Little red and white strings
Twisted together, forming a constellation Galaxies from afar inside them
I can tell there's something more to us
Red strings walk around
Transparent legs and a lack of mouths
Yet they tell me, you're the one
I stick my head inside your chest
Your intestines bleed on my head
We fuse into one, this is deeper than love
Head to head, I crash land into your soul
I nest my memories inside your system
You cave in around me, the mother of humanity
Red strings warp around me
Red and white, parallel but similar
They become too tight, squeezing me
Heart to heart, your heart eats mine
To eat one and to eat the other
The sweet mother of cannibalism
Play your sweet tune as we fuse
Intestines slip and slide into form
You and I become one, no more danger
Red strings enter into my digestive center
Wrap around our heart, tight and suffocating
Hearts surrender to the sweet release of love
Little red strings, they will never tear us apart
