Pennies

Penny for your thoughts?

I’d rob a bank for the pleasure

of your celestial thoughts

A thousand armies could never tame

the lion roaring through the jungle

to feast on your deepest desires

Allow me the privilege of losing myself

within the alleyways of your mind

To surf the waves that circuit your

craziest fantasies

And grant every last of your wishes

 

Throw three wishes, along with every

penny for your dreams

Lie with me beneath the night sky

As we trade dreams with our bodies

intertwined

You have me wilding out

My animalistic nature bursting through

my fragile body

Robbing souls to get pennies for your thoughts

 

Penny for your thoughts?

I’d pay endlessly to translate the magic

you possess into literary masterpieces.
