you vs. electricity

Your electricity flows out of your fingertips shocking me

and making me feel energy in places I didn't know it could reside.

Lightning jump starts my heart and sends a current through my body, accelerating my breathing and fueling my desires.

Impulses fire in my brain rewiring my thoughts

and I can only compare it to crawling in to bed with the thought of Christmas morning in the middle of June.

Your fingers send jolts through my nerve endings and power surges through my hair, making it stand on end.

They feel like cigarette burns on bare flesh and I can't help but cringe at how much I enjoy it.
