YOU

You see straight through me.

I know.

I see so in your eyes.

You know men well.

I'm one of those, so,

Nothing much here will surprise.

Yet,

Your gaze catches,

On word, gesture, glance,

Delights, opens, invites,

Sighs, moans, laughing, love.

Awareness embraced,

Limbs entwined,

Falling in,

Fading out.

Stoked to blazing,

Burning what here remains.

Playing in ashes,

Dancing by emberlight.
