slim desire

Slim desire, come and nourish me
Let my bygone youth play havoc still
Be the appeal of all fabric lay heated
Steely eyed, insulated, a melodic nature song
 
Slim desire, come and force feed me
Let my aching bones feel electricitys will
Be the turn of the key that winds me
Aged, the parody of years inflicted
 
Slim desire, come and hold me
Let my selfishness be shy tonight
Be my harsh tongues conscience
Slim desire, be a well rounded invite
 
Slim desire, make me feel something
Not just emptiness, dank permeating sky
Slim desire is a yearn, a longing
Its the cauldrons blend, a slim desire

(2013)

a poem about intimacy in a long term relationship,and the fact that growing older doesn't stop desire,it gives it more meaning

silent riot

solitude why do you hurt me so when all I ever wanted was a slice of your quiet I’m saturated
