I Never Saw Blue Like That
I could lose myself to us,
wiggle my toes in the grassy blades
of our colloquy,
sunbathe beneath the wild heat
of your latest exclamation,
pant at its flame
Your words lick my spine
like a possessive lover,
branding me with their claims
I burn too deep, Blue
It feels like Hell fastened itself
to the soles of my feet
