I will never make anyone complete
I never have made claim to this
But my breath has been stolen away
From the lips of a first kiss
Quench the fire that is now started
Smoke that rises to new heights
Kill the seemingly endless days
Until they fade into velvet night
The heat you give off
Though I am not burned just yet
I relish the chance to writhe
Dripping in our own sweat
I am at peace in the world
I feel your breathing on my skin
The total sense of your touch
Is what I am losing myself in

‘Love me to death’ you haltingly say
And then begin to softly cry
‘No,’ I say as I hold tightly on,
‘I will love you until I die’
