I want to be heard, and so when I talk you listen. I want to share more than words, and so when I offer, you take a what’s given.
I want to be seen, and so when I’m there, your attention to my every detail is flawless. I want to be held in regard, and so when my skin cries out its silent plea for you, you reach out at grab me regardless.
I want to be loved, and so when my heart is bloody and wide open, the shade from your tree is given as shelter. I want to be consumed wholly. So when your mouth meets mine, your breath bends with mine in kind.
I want You, and so I roam the skies to constantly find you there. Burning and bursting, a radiant glory. Millions of miles from my reach; annoying.
I too burn for you.
