I

I lose the words when I dream of your love
I move the world at the thought of your wants
I brave the pain of you being away
I enjoy the shame of clinging to you day to day
I choose to indulge in the flesh of your body
I have no choice as your love and soul devour me
I open my eyes in the morning for you
I don’t rest till you’re at your best, it’s true
I envy the clothes that bind to you
I only envision my own arms bringing warmth to you
I kneel to your presence like a knight to his queen
I am healed by your touch, and comforted by your gleam
