You're blind to me

You bring all of yourself

To the spaces between

Our light and dark.

But you never explore

All the hope I've saved

For you in my heart.

You don't know

What I need

What makes me bleed,

Makes me shiver,

Makes me dream.

You don't touch

The darkest parts of me.

The places were my light lies,

In greatest pleasure.

Your would-be-delights,

If only you'd see.
