between us

.

did I ruffle those perfect feathers of yours, darling ?

no love, you just tickled the fire in my soul

and how does the blaze feel under your skin, does it burn ?

no, I bathe in it, like in a summer’s dream

it does not scorch your soft lips ?

it never does, it never will

but it must hurt you when your body is ignited by flames... it must

no, you are my flames and there is no other way I will have it

you must see reason here

the only reason I see is me against you, so say no more

yet. . .

no, my love, enough! no words! why do you question my reason, why do you doubt my words? have I not shown you how my body trembles under your faintest touch?

how my soul bursts into flames and how my heart threatens to jump out of my chest? how each fiber of my being, screams for more of you?

I know all of those things

and yet you doubt

I fear for you

you should not, I am perfectly at ease

and if there is harm ?

there will be none

but if so ?

then I will burst into flames, I will fall to ashes and then rise from them like a Phoenix, a fearless creature that always flies... just burn with me, my love... no more questions asked

this love that we share, always so complex and painful by its ends, yet you hold the truth, my dear, you always do

then we shall burn together ?

we always have, and we always will

no more words between us ?

no, just our hot breaths and nothing else

nothing else, never again
