Those words you spoke,
Solemn and soft,
Caressed my supple heart,
And ignited it into desire

I felt your touch peer through the cracks.
Your love breathed through the gaps.
I saw your eyes shimmer in the shadow.
Your warmth glimmer in the cold.

I came running to that door —
The one you opened just for me.
All alone with your lingering touch,
Held by the softness of my reverie.

And now my love burns fiercely.
Setting fire to that solemn door.
The frame splinters my tender hands,
Desire bleeding now for my own flesh and bone.
