ignite my empty frame with your fiery ash
teach my bones to know tendrils of warmth
feed me your sweet poison
place the delicate drops on my dry thirsting tongue
tempt my inhibitions
with your slow curving mouth and fearless unblinking eyes
scratch with rough nails
let the blood seep through
appreciate beauty in the red
and with searching fingers trace the hidden valleys i've had yet to find
ravage my mind
extract the words and thoughts
probe with force and tenacity
snap the locks shatter the ice expose the fear
