Ice and Ash

2024-08-26
I draw closer, intrigued
by the ice and ash of his kiss
touching my lips.
I taste the flame of his love,

like the whales moving the oceans,
in rotations, I taste blue
in forgotten time.
I come to know exaltation,

when he whispers to me,
with the words I beg to hear:
I am his and he is mine.
Raging heat, our affection burns.

Our wet flesh is all of it.
And yet,
we are that much more.
He knows, he knows.
