I Breathe Fire
As the mythical treasure of the Argonauts
illustrious eyes draw me in
the tendrils of your gaze
seeking the answer
an unasked question
draping itself over my needs
I inhale
Abruptly your nearness
overwhelms
the brilliance of you
beckons to my spirit
As your nearness overtakes me
A need for air overcomes sense
reason reigns in need
I tremble
A catch in sigh
through gasping lips
Your first brush
throwing me into
cyclone of want
forever burns my skin
in the slow lava
you draw from me…
I exhale
Rapture from the heat
my master in the fires
sated in love
I Breathe fire …
