You cannot even begin
To imagine the heat at which
My body burns next to yours.

As if fire courses through my veins
And my world becomes brighter,
Yet darker
As the sole spotlight of my focus
Rests on you.
Your lips.
Your eyes.
Your hands.

My hands shake as you guide them,
My breaths deepen as you stall them,
My heart struggles
Against the fiery chains you place around it

You cannot imagine
The wild fire
That you've started inside me.
Burning passion? Maybe
Desire? Definitely
Love? Possibly
