White Sky At Night
Shape your body between my hands, and shiver.
Light fading from the white-pink sky, world bleached to one wash of gold-sparked green.
Hair rises on my arms, your hand around my heart. If you let go, it will stop beating.
Want you so.
Bite my arm to the bone, keep your name inside.
Fuck here comes the night again.
Wish I could refine my longing and my fear, and make something beautiful of them.
Give them to you… or hide them away…
But all I can do is make this night, and another, and yet another.
And love you more in the morning than I did when darkness fell.
