Work Text:
Sometimes
when you look
I smoulder.
Set ablaze
with the heat
of your soul.
You’re an
angel I know
but I wonder…
"Do you ever think that we should..."
We could
put aside
our glasses.
" ...get closer."
Let the wine
simply sit and
get stale.
While we
move our hands
and just ponder:
"Why'd we wait so long for this day? "
I would
wrap you in arms
cold but steady
I would
quiver beneath
your touch.
You would
make me forget
all I wasn’t,
and would teach me again to fly;
so close to the sun
that I smoulder.
But at least
I would burn
while you’re mine.
