an endless appetite

inspired by In Eclipse challenge

~

every moment your lips touch mine, the hunger grows, no longer

content to gnaw on self-esteem, impossible to be satiated with the

likes of mere love. the sheer

impetus for possession is maddening. my

polarized thoughts strip away all

sanity, until i'm left with one undeniable truth after the fallout–

every moment your lips touch mine, i transcend.

    Gnawing...yes.

    I like the imagery you create across this, with words like “gnaw” and “satiated” and “maddening” Heather- it gives the piece an almost animalistic energy!

    This is so beautifully done - full of passion and wanting. That last line is dvine perfection. I love this so much!

  • This made me remember Everytime We Touch by Cascada. Loved your Acrostic!

    Another stunning piece from the Hubler. So many words...so many lines...that stand out. But, like Brin...the transcend bit and also, polarized thoughts line...just, yeah. Good one, pal. unodossert

    It amazes me how artfully to fuse passion with despair, Heather. Beautifully written!
