I respond to your touch
still
even eagerly
a thirst yet to be satisfied
angry then
with myself
for weakness
even submission
how is it
I should live with myself
while needing you so
let’s agree
to see it our own way
but together
call it love

As much as we want to be needed
we hate being needy. But in tandem
it can work out well.

May the fire burn all the brighter.
