I am gifted
to your darkness
pale in the star shadow galaxy
with comet speed
I fizzle
.
lightless stone,
you and your universe carry me
weightless
soundless
motionless
draped in your planetary arms
your Saturn rings
your angelic cosmic halo
Heaven’s ambassador
.
This War
these blistering meteors
these molten tears…
shall I ever feel anything
but heat?
.
how long will you hold me
your willing prisoner
slave to your needs
servant of desires
.
I hand myself over
shackled wrists
naked want
glistening anticipation
throbbing, pulsing
a beating heart
a tiny bead
the softest opening
my scent is confession
my blush is surrender
your hands and your lips
my welcome bondage
