Dark Flame
I see it.
I always have.
The way you make me fall for something so unconditional.
Are you surprised I see a future in those eyes?
I’m not afraid of the I do’s when it comes to you.
You’re the epitome of intensity —
but that’s what made me addicted.
The rush of your attention,
I couldn’t get enough,
and I’m always coming back for more.
You’re the most tasteful sin,
and I want to eat from it every single day,
even if it ruins me.
Your body is my favorite playground,
and your mind —
I want to marry in sweet devotion.
I can’t stop the way you make me want to stay inside of you,
like it’s the only place I was ever meant to be.
A lust and a love so elevating
I can’t help but worship the ground you walk on.
I couldn’t sink my fingers deep enough into your back.
Couldn’t overwhelm your heart enough —
because I would never be worthy.
But I still want to be.
Such a dark, sweet flame —
and yet it burns so bright for me,
though I’ll never understand why.
Still, I’d squeeze every ounce of your love
if it meant I could bask in it forever.
I don’t need the light
if I can live in your darkness.
It’s the most I’ve ever felt alive.
And every taste of your lips
means more than the sickness of my every day.
You are a gift to this world —
but a goddess I never want to stop worshipping.
You simply are everything I ever needed.
And I’ll never stop wanting
everything you are.
