Of Longing and Desire

You caress me with your every word and I, I burn for you It's in the poise of your hands, and a fire that isn't seen It's the way my conscious, stirring misguided divides, and clings to you naked, briefly (then falls) into forms naive, safely drawn from delusion and dream with such ease (for your touch no heavier than a whisper)
