if desire is a flame then i

am a wild

fire burns up and down

my arm

scalding sweet kisses of

love encompasses all in my mind

as your name writes itself in tattoo ink

in my

heart beat beat beating

flowing an ocean of love into your hands

no rhythm erratic static sounds in the

emptiness of my arms that don’t

hold you hold me tight close

finger tip kisses together in the promise land

of

us we you and me

everything that can be could be

would be if you let me

pull the sun from the sky itself

if you asked

i could never say no to

you and your eyes, all knowing all wondering

what do you think of me,

do you picture my name when you’re with her

if you did, i wouldn’t let you

go,

run with me until we fly,

your wings lifting us higher until

you are the moon and i am the stars,

watching you for an eternal night
