Scorching
Let the fire burn,
scorching;
Let the intensity flourish,
Let yourself come undone;
Feel your heart beat again;
I can color the stars in your eyes,
drink paradise;
Such a small taste
leaves me hungry for another moment,
another spark;
Cinders that invade me
they ignite the floor;
I am enveloped, charred;
The smoke led me straight to you;
What’s it like to succumb to a muse?
I’m dying to touch that truth;
Under my skin like a wildfire;
Slowly speeding up,
then aching to a crawl;
tip my chin up, I freeze
Your everything has brought me to my knees.
So I am left to burn faster, harder
Scorching.
