Burn For Me
I burn and burn
unending white-hot flames
boiling from my heart to
sear your face in my retina
you linger to stroke my cheek, my arm, my neck,
softly whispering words of love and passion.
Deftly you back away from my warm embrace,
Abruptly Cool.
Your mask struggles to hide
the guilty blade of desire that
etched your name in
my solid oak tree.
I turn around, confused,
heart blazing anew from
what probably amounts to a casual remark.
I wish only that I might
find your fire
feel the intense heat
of your fascination
as you burn for me...
I listen to your measured breath
as you sleep in my arms.
A whisper falls on deaf ears
for you to take what's already yours.
