i saw the gap again today.
half of me was begging to stay.
i took care not to enter.
if i did i may have disappeared.
another man is going to have my body.
devour my flesh and break my bones.
and it aches.
my vow to celibacy and solitude is only a word away.
tell me you don't want to see me with someone else.
that only you deserve my time and space.
i'm already committed, i just await your grace.
martyr me with your tongue.
satiate me and subdue my conscience in a way only you know how.
i feel as though i belong to you.
though not you to me
