When You Speak

when you speak..
          
          
such rousing vibrations   
pour from you           
          
Tendrils of sound       
meander from your mouth           
and settle around my neck           
          
They curl           
and thicken           
and tighten 
with delicious finger-like grip           
          
Soon, I mightn't be able           
to breathe       
  
I should beg you to stop 
But I adore that you're killing me
