Seven and Seven

Constant Cravings buzz my ear
I watch you dance across mahogany
stained oak sets you afire
with scents of clove and sandlewood
burning me down to nubs of shinking
flesh that needs to rubbed for warmth and
healing hands calm the raging burn

Silent Laughter trickles my way
you raise a brow in protest
to the dew that steals us from the night
until morn I lay awake smelling and longing
for a day that passed and I never touched
you in ways that sent birds into flight
far from dances and winds that save me
