Parenthesis on Fire
My eyes are in your room
I can see that you're everything
I'm not
You're red satin sheets
You're sure naked steel
I'm only a quiver in the dark.
Is it you or is it me?
My mouth feels like a magnet
pulling you in
Until I'm everything you are
Until your body is an ellipsis
A sentence left incomplete
And I'm the eager exclamation point,
finishing you off.
My eyes are in your room
and nothing looks the same.
