If someone asked me to describe

What it was like to hear

My name escape

From the sweet, sweet lips
That I've always dreamt about

I would tell them

That it was as if

You wrapped explosives

Tight around my heart

And with every whispered word

Every delicate touch

Every loving kiss

A very small piece 

Would blissfully burst 

And heat my entire body

Until I was so warm with love

That I truly believed I was melting
