trying to quell your rage,
we cannot take these fevers back,
even though your naked skin can
so easily pull away from mine,
something inseparable merged
And surged within that first touch,
all else becomes listless without
your presence relentlessly consuming.
Nights alone grow far too uneasy
and become radio silence surrounding,
ghost static between stations
I’ve always longed to find,
signals I would tune to
and never let go of again.
I can almost see it
when my eyes close.
Your leg draped over mine,
bare and warm in the night,
stillness broken by the slow
breathing of your body.
You would’ve been pure motion,
reeling us towards a blissful edge
where all seems to come untethered,
where a universe bursts throughout us.
You searched through me
long before then,
before I was all yours.
We couldn’t take these fevers back,
you would rather have me
break your entire heart
than to only love you in the dark
And surge for you just in secret,
all sensation would be meaningless.
Nights alone grew far too uneasy
and became ghostly murmurs
between our lost stations,
I tuned to the signals
and refuse to ever let you go.
I can feel something
inseparable between us.
Your leg draped over mine,
a soft and warm claiming,
stillness broken by the sound
of you breathing in tune
with my calm heart,
of being all yours.
You would’ve been pure motion earlier,
something close to a furious edge
where all seems to unravel before
merging together in explosions.
I was searching for you
long before then,
for a love that we would
never dream of taking back.
