Poems
May 2014
a cute candle
I build it up and hold a fire
and burn all night long
I acquiesce with grace, to your desire
and dance to a tuneless song
I drench this frail body in tears
and melt my flesh for you
I strip myself of all my fears
and do as you ask me to
I hiss and gently watch your eyes
as you are bending over me
I don't attempt to hush my sighs
and tease you as you tease me
I lie awake and keep you warm
when you decide to sleep
I faint and fade in my calm
my strength isn't to keep
I stay by you when morning dawns
and refuse to let go
I just am one among your pawns
which you eventually throw....
