Love X Real

His feet

soft from never

walking on anything

except my heart; I fall beneath

his feet.

.

His eyes

have burnt me up

alive; I am turned to

dust and swept away by his

lashes.

.

His hands

dissolved my stone

reshaped me; a waxen

toy that melts under his trailing

fingers.

.

His chest

invites my kiss -

shall I count his heartbeats

or the so scattered freckles with

my lips?

.

His ears

stick out a bit.

That's true; but who the hell

asked you? You'll never get to kiss

his ears.
