I'm Burning More Than You...Who's Brave?

You were specific in the way you wanted me killed
But I also have my own specifics:

**** me with the care you never gave
Bath me in the tender torture I longed for
Put the weight of forever on me
Look at me and say "I will burn your heart"
Break all my bones, make me feel hollow right in my middle
Heal me to death
Lie to me with venom and leave it unattended
Become my hero of hurt and tell me how ugly my kind of greed is
Promise me the beauty of depths, death and your whispers that I never get to hear because you're never close enough
Knife me with nothing and let me bleed with everything
Love me.

I like how carefully he's killing me, but I have my own method of endings.

All The Road Leads To You, And All The Galaxy Obeys To You.

You dawn upon me as perfectly as you are
and your morning eyes see so many worlds
and your waking lips are hopes
and you whispering my name like a confident fire
was all it took for me to succumb to my desire
you are a constellation
you are the birthed child of perfection
you are a forever
and the sun will rise every morning just for you
and I keep falling in love with you
and the nature of this beast will enslave me to you
It's an imprint of pleasure
I want to learn you
I want to bend to you
I want you, impulsive
I want you, compulsive
you are larger than galaxies
nothing contains you
nothing out-supremes you
nothing
nothing but you
and everything but you
you... oh, you.

To Cody.

Mermaid: III. The Merwoman's Greed Continued - Mournful Anger

I loved you through skins and into your within,
how dare you shame me for my proudly presented fins?
I will burn you, I will drown you, I will breed pain in your bones.
To condemn your inner core and send you to stones.
For this hurt I'll return worst, you tempted my thirst;

I am your curse.

Mermaid: II. The Merwoman's Greed

From the depths she called home,
the scaled-she ascended her realm.
She saw blood, bones and skin;
fell in love, forgetting he is without fins.
He loved her not and of air he'll stay.
She whispered in an almost mournful way

"I'll make the way you drown beautiful"

Liberation from the Heat

Your fire breath is on my neck,
exhaling ecstasy on to me.
Your phantom heat never leaves,
but let it be, it sets me free.

and suddenly i'm the one who can't stop, go on, keep breathing on me. To Simon

That Fire Can't be Larger Than My Desire; But Dare Me Wrong

I can't touch you,
a fire so content lives on all your parts.
You looked at me and even said
"I'll burn your heart"

the light, the heat, I am complete.

The Comedown After The Slow Gain of Lust

There is so much fire to him,
and I'm burning... but man I'm in awe.
The way he looks at me; I see infinities.
In his eyes were wildness and all my desires.
I could see the hell in my doing but I could feel all the heavens.

His touches were absolute and forever,
His lips were futures and my full.

I love him so abyssal and with too much universe,
with my all
and in completeness,
through death
and beyond that.

I love him
perfect and finished.

I love him,
through and through,
forever till ever,
wholly and entire.

I love him.

To him
