Your Eyes

Your eyes pierce me
I feel the heat
Of their incredible glow
Your eyes flow through me
Like liquid fire
Searing every pore
That I exist in
Your eyes are burning daggers
Decimating my body
Hurling the heat of sun
Into my wilting being 
Your two heat packed eyes
Have blown away
My dejected self
Your eyes have destroyed me
Just by the demon fire
They have created
Burning me to ashes
Blown into the hot wind

Russell Sivey

fire of eye doth burn the soul, hot kisses, damning hot to hold, melting of the burnished gold, see it in the mind of eye, a sissling of the eye pig stye, a mercy killing bye n by, all done by dentist drill, a touch of over-kill, did Santa Claus come by? inspired by Russell Sivey 'Your eyes' Don

Searing eyes here, must wear shades to keep the sizzle in. Great write.
