Wanting

I want you
Like the forest craves the rain

I want you
As the Earth needs the moon

I want to believe
But the clock ticks on

I see the disparity of time
That eclipsed my heart

In it, the tide clashes against my veins
The demolition of self psychosis

Memories erase images
Words dictate sensation

But the feelings remain
Triggered on a razor blade

The beast forgets the wolf
But his prints stain my flesh

Hooked on a moment
Whispers of self reverence

My name, soft on his mouth
Like a dream, I keep falling. . .

Deep into it’s delicacy
That tender kiss

His name, now traced on my lips
Belief in a system without knowledge

I, the rider, lost in his gaze
To love without chase.
