old beyond aging
alive beyond time
you hold me close
fierce in your embrace
i love you
more than my own self
and far more
than the sea
your conquering kiss
an untamed storm
your furious gaze
a song to me
in whispers
your violence the fall
that lifts me up
a day spent dying
thirsting for your breast
i am absorbed
by the smoke of your anger
you bind the unbending
in you their vigor pales
as do i
as i lie
deep in you
a lasting pain
