you are a collection of my favourite senses.
you are the smell of smoke
of a fire that’s just burnt out
the drifting
curling grey
the ash
glowing still
you are the too-bright sun in my eyes
blinding
disorienting
and yet still beautiful and necessary
the pagan in me
worshipping your descent to earth
like an angel
who simply wanted to greet me
you are the feel of a fur coat around my neck
soft and warm
comforting, like a mother’s touch
but also a thrill, unsettling
the feeling of death kissing my throat
you have the taste of aphrodisiacs
chocolate, wine and
avocado
the juices of our chemistry
dripping from the sides
of my mouth
your smile wide
at the open euphemism
you are a collection of my favourite senses
and when i kiss you i am
senseless
