I want to be
Seared and maddened
By somebody's soul

The contact that
Penetrates and rearranges
Every bit of my whole

An intimacy risked
A drowning danger in your pool of
Fire ripples on the Moon

Breathe. Hold nervously
Longing to exhale aching lungs
Burning inside you

I yearn to be
Seared and maddened
By your unbound soul
