I want to crack your mind open,
And spill the contents of your thoughts upon my floor, and gaze upon your conscience for hours.
It is not a violent temptation, just a yearning that heats the crackling embers within me.
If I knew what it was that creased your brow, or piqued your attention, or masqueraded before you in a daydream, perhaps then I'd know you as you are, completely.
Perhaps if I knew your mind, my own would feel at peace knowing it is not alone.
It is not an angry temptation, but one full of sorrow, and envy of your mind, the very mind that is sole audience to your soul.
Oh, to know what you think when you smile to yourself, or crinkle your nose, or frown the second after you come down from the high of laughter.
I want to spill the fragments of your brain onto my desk, and sort through the make-up of you for hours on end.
To know at last what it is that wires the most remarkable, and most captivating, person I've ever met.
