neither do i.
a fever brews, festering beneath my brow
it weighs such a crushing warmth
in the confines of skin and bone
it's dressed in the red that blushes
and burns along the seams of my lips
that so cries and longs and aches
for her holy, holy, holy kisses
for the surface of flesh my fingers
yearn to explore; to merely know
in tenderness and wickedness
my mind wanders in inspiration
such eden
such heaven
tell me
do you envy me?
because i pity you
for you shall never know
never know what it is
that i gather with desire
for she
is the sweetest salvation of all
the greater treasure
too bad your god will never love you
