your arms

                         Things I
        Want to share with you
     My whole life would be
           made true
        If only you could see it, too.
      Your touch makes waves of my
                Skin --
     Unconscious moments to
           Bury secrets in and
      Epitaphs of red and gold
                Illuminate memories
           As they grow cold
       But the world is imbued
          with warmth --
                      As long as I'm in
                                Your arms.
