Till Heart Explodes

he hungered 
          a fierce fervor. 
               slowly 
          an arousal 
     rise of her sunshine. 

     enraptured 
          by dim
               flitter of 
          bister 
     untamed eyes. 

     a wan breath 
          briefly abandoned
               by the vision and taste 
          of
     a single being.
