The phone sex was 
worth it,
and although risky, all the pictures that we sent were  worth it. 
We were Christians still, 
but immorality felt so well, that no commandment could break our immoral will.

We used to feel abused whenever we were done, 
and so we'd  fall to the ground, 
asking God to forgive us for what we had done, 
and all the guilt would be lifted from our shoulders like a thousand pounds. 

We held on to each others'
secrets tightly 
and never shared them with anyone, 
but I forgot how to treat you rightly, 
and I lost like you like a game that couldn't be won.

At first, I thought you were too beautiful 
for me, 
and I just didn't know how to love 
you back.
Then, when I discovered that you loved me for real, 
I got scared and tumbled down the hill like Jack.

I was selfish and deserved to 
be punished, 
for I should have treated you better,
but I didn't expect to be eternally banished. 
I wish we could still climb the dark sky and sit on the moon together, let down our long arms and use our index fingers to poke at the weather.
