Burning Soul

Pushing, Pulling, Needing

Stealing the breath from my lungs.

Beauty, Dangerous, Magnificent

Blurring the view of myself.

Wonder, Pain, Anger

Scorching the edges of my soul.

Sparks, Ashes, Rubble

The detritus of broken dreams.

Love, Hate, Desire

Beating at the walls around my heart.

Alone, Again, Forever

Wanting overshadowed by fear

He told me it would be this way. He told me I would lose myself if we gave into our attraction. I would be consumed by him; gobbled up like kindling in a fire, reduced to gray, lifeless ash. Here I lie, alone, afraid, staring at the blackness that surrounds me. My body unerringly recalls every touch, every stroke. My mind remembers the whispered words, the taste and smell of his skin, the incredible heat. My heart feels nothing. It is broken beyond repair. I needed too much, hungered too much, wanted too much. And he…he was afraid.
