Anodyne

I feel you inside me As blood races to my brain Screaming your name. You burn through me like an acid flow And everything I know is left in ashes. You move me to extremes, Out of the in-between Were sadness lies just behind the eyes, Into the realm of sound and substance. I feel you inside me As I come to the brink, And to think My little world seemed so important. You are love, You are my drug, You are fire incarnate, You are the state of grace epitomized. You grind my soul and shock my senses, Shake and shatter my defenses, You break me and make me whole. I feel you inside me. I drink you in. Electric nectar surges through my veins. I am swept away To the place where you are, Within and without, Above and below, Everywhere and nowhere.
