Fade

You're not simply some

intimidating presence 

presently,  

though your perception is

that you're saturated

unwelcoming ichor so 

allow my pleading perspective,

even if only for posterity’s sake…

Allow my greedily frantic, 

hellishly pulsating heart...

 

Though I know that I could

never evoke a solipsistic somersaulting sentimentality...

Something such as 

Your sights set

in torturous speculation 

of what mind
numbing
pleasure

your 

sultry, 

decadent,

Indulgent lips
would bring 

to mine
if
only
once

 

Your density of might

which I compulsively convey,

rehearsed in a well of recollections,

isn't steeped in some ghostly fragments of another.
Rather it's entirely something I've

never felt necessity to any

exploration. 

 

I'm 

intrinsically 

insistent...

that

Your attention is

intimately inviting.

 

In every sunset

defining stages of grief

that I cannot escape

Thank you again

That's very kind of you to say. I'm never sure what resonates with people so I just kind of try to draw comparison to conceptualizations
