Hide in You

With seeking eyes and hungry lips, you measure me~

inch by inch, salty kiss~

the veins, the trees, the foamy sea;

through the walls we create, to protect and destroy,

separating skin from skin.

Pull me through to seek with you~

to glide, as you lead; to rise with your touch.

Looking through you in this concrete room,

Locked inside, standing still, raging fire, hurricane, burning
insane,

I touch your pain through the blur, and I watch you move, I
see you through.

Each toss, each turn, somewhere in the cold grays, I balance
on the walls.

Searching, sneaking, I hunger for you; you tumble to me.

I caress the grooves, to feel you move.

Stalking like a predator, pacing like an animal, I try to
find my balance, and the life is vanishing.

Sleek, your pet, I hunt to find you etched within my veins;
the lifelines, flowing like a river.

Floating inside, your eyes search me through.

Captive, you bend, to touch.
I pull the secrets from your ear,

the man that is lost inside (we all hide).

Caressing flesh, possessive embrace, pulling away my
disease-thick and black, clotted pool,

watching the demon rise, and seek his home, you tower above,
stirring the sky, clouds molding at

your fingertips, dancing for me.

The demons multiply-chattering teeth, gnawing the flesh,
chewing their victims, spreading disease;

Our fingertips touch.
Take my hand.  Let’s get out of
here.  I curl up inside your flesh.  Keep me

safe inside your home.
Smile.

You ,

me,

fire,

sun,

combustion*
